LangCorrect Addiction

Recently, I came to realize that LangCorrect is a social media and we are all addicted to it. It's not bad per se, since the more time we spend here, the more we can learn, however I think we should be more conscious about it. Sometimes, I find myself updating this site in order to receive new corrections, or reading other peoples' posts in languages I don't even know. Everybody has their own writing style and language proficiency, so while some mostly write about what they ate today, others try to fathom the meaning of the universe. And I really like that all this is happening on this one little website that unites language enthusiasts from all over the world. After all, it's not that bad to be addicted to it, right?

Corrections

Recently, I came to realized that LangCorrect is a kind of / type of social media, and we are allcan become addicted to it.

I combined suggestions from other readers, and changed "we are all" to "we can become" to reflect the variety of users and responses.

It's not bad per se, since the more time we spend here, the more we can learn, however I think we should be more conscious aboutof it.

I like the feedback that said "conscious of" is not negative. It can also be very positive, as in yoga and other mindfulness practices.

Sometimes, I find myself updating this site in order to receive new corrections, or reading other peoples' posts in languages I don't even know.

Several alternatives to "updating" have been suggested. I might add "visiting," "revisiting," or "checking."
"Or reading other people's posts in languages I don't even know." The way you worded this makes it very funny.

The feedback about using "After all" is interesting. It's the first question I had when I read the piece--Does that work? Would something else work better? Of course, it's up to you, but LangCorrect is doing good work in providing a variety of feedback, including leaving it as is. Here are some other options: "When all is said and done," "Perhaps" "At the end of the day," "All things considered,"

Right on target for your goal. Kudos!

Hi Lerner, I just discovered a site that made me think of you. https://www.language-exchanges.org/content/about-mixxer
Why? Because it resembles LangCorrect in being of modest size with a clear and simple focus on speaking as well as writing.

As someone else, it could be worse. However, an addiction is an addiction. Maybe this website may motivate you to learn other languages like French, German, Spanish, or an underrated language like Norwegian. An alternative is to do other language learning activities like listening to a podcast, writing down lists in a language, and recording yourself speaking.

Feedback

Personally, I've been addicted to posting as many journal entries as possible on LangCorrect and similar platforms in the past. I've been trying to carve out time just for writing in the languages that I'm learning every day or every other day.

I try my best to write two texts per day, but when I'm busy, I post one text.

I’ve never thought about it this way, but you’re absolutely right.

And of all the things in the world to be addicted to, it could be worse.

I might have exaggerated with the word ''addicted'' a bit, but I think you get the gist :)
Děkuju!

LangCorrect Addiction

or "a kind of social media" to sound less drastic

It's not bad per se, since the more time we spend here, the more we can learn, however I think we should be more conscious about it.

Seeing the other correction...
"should be conscious about it" makes me think of something that we should be ashamed of (self-conscious) or be careful of
"conscious of it" simply makes me think of self-awareness

"After all," as a sentence starter has a different meaning than as an adverb placed wherever. You say "After all," when you're about to state a reason that justifies the previous sentence

Feedback

I do the same thing hehe. I'm naturally curious about other people, but I don't use social media websites because they're filled with brain rot, so I guess this is a sort of social outlet for me. I like that it's productive and doesn't feel like time-wasting. However, I hope they don't add more features that make it resemble a typical social media website.

I also barely use any other social media sites, with only two exceptions being LangCorrect and GoodReads. Thank you for your help, gaezer!

That's pretty based. And np!

Recently, I came to realize thatit feels like LangCorrect is a type of social media and we are all addicted to it.

"come to realize" would sound more appropriate when talking about facts or something most people accept as true, but not really about your own opinion, unless you phrase it differently (e.g. "Recently, I came to realize that I use LangCorrect like social media and I'm addicted to it." <- you can have a realization about yourself, but it feels weird to assume "we" are "all" addicted, if that makes sense).

It's not bad per se, since the more time we spend here, the more we can learn, however I think we should be more conscious aboutof it.

" be conscious of ~" is more of a fixed expression in English

Sometimes, I find myself updaposting this situpdates here in order to receive new corrections, or reading other peoples' posts in languages I don't even know.

After allSo in the end, it's not that bad to be addicted to it, right?

"After all" is usually for making a justification or stating a general truth that agrees with all the previous statements, and "in the end" is more like you're emphasizing the final perspective/conlcusion on a topic or summarizing it. So "after all" feels a little weird because you sound both like you support using the site a lot and like you're cautioning people to pay more attention to how they use it so much.

Feedback

I actually forget this site exists pretty often, and I never read posts from other people unless I'm correcting them ^^; so I guess my experience is quite different from yours, haha
