Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I am fairly happy with mine. It varies across the week, since I work at a number of different sites each week. Shortest is 10 mins, longest 40 mins.
I live rurally, the sites are all rural and the drive takes me through some beautiful (officially beautiful: designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) countryside: woodland, heath, farms and villages. It is enjoyable no matter what the season.
I don't think that hate anything about it. Getting stuck behind tractors is fairly common and is a bit of a slog sometimes, but it goes with the territory.
Sometimes I will have a podcast on (Philosophise This, In Our Time, Thinking Allowed etc) other times I am happy without.
Obviously it is driving. Usually just me in a car and there are all the pollution issues around that. The nature of the sites means that it is unlikely that there is going to be public transport at anything like the appropriate times anytime in the foreseeable future - there certainly isn't now. I could, sometimes, cycle to the closest one. But both the public transport and cycling options then make if difficult if and when I am called to one of the other sites during the day - which doesn't happen every day, but is unpredictable.
