I've noticed some usernames around Lemmy in almost all communities I follow that create several new posts daily and comment in almost all topics. I'm very curious, how do you have so much time on your hands?

This question's been eating at me for some time, but I didn't want to directly ask in any of the threads or message the users because I don't to single anyone out, I'm just very curious. <3

I don't have a title per se, but I can say that I work with information security and vast amounts of data. I have ADHD so doing "mindless" things like quipping on Lemmy, sudoku and word search puzzles helps me think. It is also why I often comment with images. So I might be commenting or shitposting, but in the back of my head I am thinking about how to restructure a query so that it will return in seconds rather than minutes.

EDIT: It is also why most comments are edited. I comment now and return to spell/grammar check later (if at all).
