So, Through this app, I've tried changing the text styles into "Bold", "Italic", "Strikethrough" by the parallel slide it offers just above the keyboard. But none of them works when Commenting on a post.

This is the very first time I'm officially testing the text styles in post.

This line should appear Bold

This one should be Italic

~~This one should be Strikethrough~~

^superscripst^

~subscript~

If the upper 5 lines don't appear as different text style to you or to me, then what can be concluded from this? Is this the app's incompatibility or my device's incompatibility?

Additionally I'll try all the 5 styles in comments. Since I don't know if only I cannot see the effects from the app and others CAN see. Respose accordingly please.

Edit: PROBLEM SOLVED

Technical problem.

So this happens when I try to log into this account from a browser while being connected through the Wifi.

Threat Score Blocked

I use a client hosting app( Voyager ) to use lemmy instead of using it inside a browser. When this problem first appeared, the first thing I noticed is that, I couldn't upvote or downvote any post. I couldn't do any interactions at all.

I can bypass this problem with either a vpn or switching to cellular connection. And I'm doing that now.

Solely to me, it seems like an IP problem with my Wifi conflicting with Lemmy's server. I want to know if this is solvable from Lemmy's end.

Hello. 22M here. Majoring in Physics, 1st year. Looking for decent earning options, almost as a whole career, but I have no idea which way to go.

Let me tell you a bit about myself. I have a strong fictional imagination, basically a writer's mind. English is not my native language. But I've practiced one or two short stories in my own language.

I have created multiple plots for multiple stories. I've intentions to start writing soon on them.

Anyway, I have close to zero bit of knowledge about coding. I only know html.

I had the time to pursue further into other languages like python, C, C++, but I'm very weak in mathematics. So I didn't learn further coding. I also didn't learn much mathematics, which has put me in an almost degraded institution for honours.

My current mental state cannot focus on one thing to pursue, I don't know why. Sometimes it gets all motivated to write the story, and other times, it gets depressed thinking about how AI is taking all the jobs and I have to learn to code to battle against AI with my own AI.

So this is the overall depiction of my shattered mind and life. I also come from a lower-middle class family. So money is scarce.

I don't want to argue about my moral ethics that if I want to earn money quickly, I can do this or that over my innate talent etc.

What I want to know is, which way will first build a strong foundation of knowledge within me and will keep me going for the long run along with the money.

Because, if I have to learn to code, I also have to study mathematics, if I want to write, I also need to research for a long time before I can even layer the elements inside the story.

My laptop broke 2 years ago and I've been on my android since then. I'm going to buy either a laptop or a tablet soon.

And a tablet adds another way which is digital arts. I don't know how to draw at all. But, as I said, whichever way I choose, I'll have to spend a bit long amount of time to actually train myself to be sufficient on that path. So I have no problem getting introduced to such new ideas and paths and spending time to get along with them.

I also got stuck between the device choice. If I buy a laptop, I'll be able to learn to code and to write my stories. And if I buy a tablet, I'll be able to learn to be a digital artist and can also write my stories but no coding.

So, the way the world's economy is going, which way and which device should I go after?

You might not like it, or you don't want to hear it at all. But the thing is, for people with ADHD to do simple tasks, they need to mentally break down the process/task and do things 1 by 1.

I'm guessing that most of you know, some of you don't know and the rest of you know but don't implement this.

For ADHDers, Doing simple tasks like taking a shower, making a cup of coffee, cleaning your desk always seem very hard and require a lot of motivation. Or it has been perceived as such. Now, I'm not going further into explaining the brain chemistry behind it. But, what happens basically is, brain gets familiar with feeling overwhelmed to move the body for the things it deems as unnecessary. So it reduces our willpower, drive and desire to do and feel certain things. But it does all of these subconsciously. So we can't detect it in real time.

But we can perceive. As soon as we start to observe ourselves from a 3rd person perspective, as soon as we start to question our actions, our brain get exposed to us. We can see, feel, and know about our behavior that's been directed by the brain in real time.

All these time, there has been the messenger chat head circle floating in a corner of my phone screen. Now, if I had been the person I was 1 month ago, then I'd get easily swayed by the chat-head and would forget about writing the post.

So, what to do in these kind of situation? Not only we need to perceive ourselves as an outsider, we need to constantly question ourselves about our aim, purpose and priority.

So, no matter what spicy conversation people are having inside my messenger app and I get to see the number of messages increasing through the floating chat-head, I have been questioning myself from the moment I started writing the post. Such as:

1. [ My name ], is messenger that important to you right now?
2. [ My name ], Are you going to fall into the same rabbithole again?
3. [ My name ], is this how you decided to make a change?
4. Don't you wanna help people who have the same problem as yours?

-- Upper discussion was the first phase. Now the second.

So, in order to literally complete the tasks that seem difficult for us to do, we need to mentally break it down to multiple points/methods.

Meaning, we need to have our inner monologue explaining all the consecutive methods to finally complete the task. Another questioning session. But this time, questions come with actions.

For example, let's assume that you're reading this post laying down in your bed and you're thinking of making a coffee. So, instead of thinking, "I need to make a coffee", Ask yourself, "What do I need to do to make a cup of coffee?"

Then break down the process. Mentally.

Think to yourself, "First, I need to put the phone away." Immediately put the phone aside your bed or on your bedside table.

Then again, Think to yourself, "Then I need to get up from the bed and start walking towards the kitchen." Immediately get up from the bed and start walking.

And the methods go forward. Try to break down a task as detailed as possible. And perform each action after you've thought it.

Ultimately, you need to make your inner monologue a weapon for yourself against your lazy brain, not for it to become a weapon for your brain against yourself.

When you face minor distractions along the way while completing a task in this method, acknowledge the distraction, observe it, analyze it's destructive effects over your life by using your inner monologue, questioning session.

I had to get up from my chair to shoo off a cat 7 paragraphs ago, but I didn't ignore the act as a distraction. I kept questioning myself similar to what I wrote in the 1st phrase. Turned out, I didn't lose much drive and desire required to write this long post.

Most of you know this method. Some you don't know and the rest know but don't implement. That's my personal observation here.

Pardon my cluttered and complex long sentences as English is not my native language.

I'd like to know about your opinions, advices and experiences on this matter if you're happy to share. Peace 🤝
