Right?? I don’t understand why every single person nowadays supposedly has autism and ADHD. If everyone has autism and/or ADHD now, then does anyone really have it?

Imo, it doesn’t really make sense to turn what are normal human experiences suddenly into disorders now because it’s trendy.

Otherwise, I don’t get why it’s so trendy to pathologize common experiences/traits.

Weird! I’m on Android 14 and I can blast the volume as loud as I want without any sort of notification. All it does is the volume slider turns red when it goes beyond like 80% or something, but it doesn’t say anything to me about it. I have a Samsung phone. My last phone was a Motorola phone and I don’t recall it nagging me either.

I don’t think I’ve ever had a phone that does that. Is that an iPhone thing?

Once during a phone call, my family needed to know the rough dimensions of something at my brother’s house. He couldn’t find a tape measure, but he had a jug of milk. We determined that the item we needed to know the dimensions of was the size of the height of my brother plus one milk jug.

Check out Red Reader if you use Android. It’s alive and well. I think because it was made for blind users that Reddit didn’t kill it.
