Should I keep using a hobby feed that makes me want equipment more than ideas?
TechnologyI opened the pottery app to find ideas for a small hand-built vase. By the time I put the phone down, I was comparing electric wheels I have nowhere to keep.
The feed was attractive. Some posts were useful. I also kept drifting from a shape I could try this weekend to setups that required purchases I had never been considering.
A friend says I should curate it more carefully. I am tempted to take a break and use the reference pictures I already saved instead.
How would you tell whether the app is helping the hobby? I want to leave a browsing session with an idea for the clay on my table, not a shopping list for a studio I do not have.
