It's when the Americans already went to bed but the Europeans didn't wake up yet. I'm in South Korea and around lunch even sorting by "New" doesn't give me any new posts, sometimes up to one hour.

I have a sleep disorder so I'm always awake through the night. For me I kinda appreciate that it makes it easier to stop scrolling, cause there's not anything new showing up and I've already seen the posts for the day :)

I can see how it'd be lonely though. Perhaps I'm used to it cause my sleep disorder is isolating whether I'm using lemmy or not

I hope you have a lovely day today :)

Do you sleep in the day, or is it just hard to get any at all?

[–] Cris_Color 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I realize now my wording was unclear 😅. The former. I go to bed around 9am-12pm right now, and wake up around 7pm-9pm.

I have a very weird schedule, but I do sleep. It's isolating because my daytime seldom overlaps that of others, if I never slept at all I'd have TONS of time to spend with folks

Ah, yeah I could see how that could be a challenge. Hopefully you can at least talk to people in the morning or before they go to bed.

[–] Cris_Color 3 points 5 months ago

I do, it's always nice getting to say good morning to folks as I'm on my way to bed. And sometimes I end up skipping sleep in order to do something that requires I be awake during normal hours (like doctor's appointments, my friends wedding) and its always nice to hang out with folks on those days ☺️

I'm grateful my friends also often stay up later than they normally would to hang out, and I often try to wake early for social time :)

wait so you don't sleep at night at all? I can't even function properly I don't get enough sleep at night.
