Not sure how unusual it is but I it’s quite uncommon around here: I don’t watch tv. I have not owned a tv set since the early 00s and I don’t miss having one (we watch DVDs on a computer). I also do not listen to news channels at all—and I don’t miss them either, as I prefer to read a couple daily newspapers (one from each side of our political spectrum, to make sure I never fell asleep within my own certainties/values).
I don’t own a tv and don’t use any mainstream social media. I just have my one lemmy account but I don’t really share that with anyone. Some people immediately call me a serial killer. Neat, I guess.
I grew up using computers and the internet as my escapism so I’m just as addicted to screens like every other person I know, just not the same screens they use.
Kinda strange being the lone person who played games on a computer while all my friends were console players.
