During downtime I didn’t really care about surfing on reddit, but it does feel a bit weirder to surf into some “random” Lemmy instance like lemmy.dbzer0.com on my work computer for some reason. Do you surf the fediverse at work?

    I only use work hardware for work. I only use work networks for work. I have a cell phone off wifi for everything else

      I do a lot of personal surfing on my work computer… But in my country the employer isn’t allowed to track what I do on the computer as long as I haven’t committed a crime 🤷

        same here, but I dont trust them, if they can technically and easily track me without me or anyone noticing I dont want to risk that

    I don’t do any personal browsing on my work computer except checking the weather before driving home. I do check Lemmy on my phone throughout the day, though.

    The benefit of being IT at work is that I’m also in charge of the filter. I’m even allowed to setup a VPN tunnel to access my home network, but then again, you can do that sort of thing with an 8-employee company.

    Mastodon is my main social-media daily driver, so I do check it out during downtime at work. Lemmy less so, but every now and then.

    I’m fortunate to have a decent data plan as well as good mobile signal in my workplace, so I just keep my phone off the company wi-fi to avoid any worry about what I’m loading through my company network.

    Besides listening to podcasts, browsin Lemmy/Reddit is the only entertainment I ever use my phone for.

    Yes, but I work from home. :-).

    Seems like it’d be a crapshoot either way. Reddit and Lemmy.
