Wow I had no idea this bothered so many people! I’ve had to learn to love with it myself since I had kids, damn night lights everywhere and white noise machines and all that crap. So it doesn’t bother me as much anymore but my god I can’t wait until they’re grown enough to cut all that crap out.

I’ve felt that way a lot in my life. I dropped out of college and lived essentially in my parents basement until my mid 20s. Turns out I had a bad case of undiagnosed depression and ADHD. I kinda naturally worked my way out of the depression mostly. I’ve fallen back in a few times. And that entire time I could think about anything but how little I’ve done with my life. How boring I must sound talking to anyone because I have zero experiences. But about 8 years ago, I got diagnosed and medicated.

I’m just some average guy, now with 2 kids and a wife, and I work 55 hours a week. It took a lot of work and finding good medications for me, but I’m honestly the happiest I’ve ever been. And I recently noticed I don’t dwell on comparing myself to others anymore and it’s been freeing. I don’t need to be distinguished for anything more than being a good father, husband, and human. And that’s enough for me.

It used to be there before the API shut down at the top right corner of the settings screen. However, I don’t think it could possibly be functional now because it would require API calls to get a list of your subs. So it’s probably just gone now.
