it's no longer news that most countries are still experiencing the lock-down rule, most especially for those that are trying to curtail the further spread of the COVID-19. Those who want to be busy still, even while trying to stay safe are staying glued to the internet trying to learn one or two things and to probably work from home.
This is a period where we now have more time to learn new things, most especially those who still need to get accustomed to how this forum works. Since I am not going to work offline for this period, I have been able to have more time for myself, to move around this forum, visit different sections and threads, to read more than typing. So, that when I later get busy with my offline work, after the whole pandemic might have subsided, I would be able to find things much easier than I used to.
Time management, therefore, is very essential.
So, as a newbie or an already established member, how have you been able to manage your time on this forum?
However, I would like to use this opportunity to show my sincere concern for those who are already affected by the pandemic, I wish you all quick recovery. One thing I want you to know is that there is nothing without a beginning that does not have an end. There will surely be an end to COVID-19 soon.

I would say the effects of the pandemic has been fair on me, it gave me the luxury of time required to understand concepts about bitcoin, trading and this forum. And i am even willing to learn more as i find my feet in this forum.

Despite lockdown, I don't have significantly more free time. I still have to go to work because I simply can't work from home. And it's actually good, because probably I would get mad if I had to sit at home all these long weeks. And I have to admit that I don't spend my free time effective. Instead of doing something useful, I just spend most of time in front of TV :/. This lockdown is good chance for us to educate ourselves about crypto more, but I'm failing to find time for reading some good stuff...

Even during this period. I don't spend much time in the forum like i used to but when am out of the forum. I am always trying to learn something new related to cryptocurrencies and practicing trading. Trading actually takes almost a half of my free time.

I don't see the lockdown as disadvantage, I see it is advantage where I can grow my knowledge and develop my skills. I work at home and for me it is not hassle like before where I need to do long transportation just to get to mt work. I can now also read books and develop my gambling and trading psychology bt evaluating my self. The only disadvantage of the lockdown is seeing the other people who have not resources where they have having a hard time to find food and money for them to able to eat. That is why we should not be selfish in this kind of crisis and we should share some resources that we have.

I don't see many benefits. Even though I work from home, my work depends on what is happening on the outside. Since there are no activities outdoors, my work tasks are at a minimum. I spend very little time with my friends, family, and those close to me.
I have been doing some gaming lately and catching up on some older TV shows that I never got around to watch when they were aired, like The Office. All we can do is hope this crisis passes as soon as possible.

The situation and subsequent lockdown likely changes people’s habits and priorities, and will do so to a further extend in the coming months. As such, I personally spend somewhat less time on the forum, mostly due to a shift in priorities for the allocates amount of time I spend here, but in addition due to a lack of high spirit to engage too much in posting. It does act as an escape valve in a sense, but reality surpasses virtuality, and I figure that the shift in priorities here will probably affect more those that have family responsibilities, than those that are students.

Pros : - I can do more casual communication with some of my close friends because now they have more free time and they don't know what to do to fill that free time.
Cons : - Everything is postponed (tournaments, projects, etc).

I get to have more me-time but it's sad at the same time because I'm far from my loved ones, my wife and baby. That's understandable and that's why I use the time that I have to do something productive.
Adding more learning resources, tutorials and reading more things about businesses and other stuff that can help me improve those things. Once this lockdown ends, I'll be the first one to travel back to them.

Positive: - I read more and realize more value of the forum. - I make more post (looks good) and get more merits than before the lockdown.
Negative: - I can not hang out to coffee stores - I can not go to gym or to parks for outdoors physical activities.

It has created several inconveniences for me, but I guess the main benefit is that it has pushed me into focusing on the creation of an off-grid lifestyle. My weekly expenditure has gone down as well.

List of positive things due to being lock-down: I spend more time with my family and specially my daughter. I have more time to teach her what I want she be taught (for example she already knows ABC and number, but all kids in her kinder garden group knows that, so she repeatedly does study it... Kinds boring for her ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) ) I can eat home made food, and not fastfood near office or other "quickly-made, quickly-grab garbage" Negative things due to lock-down: Hard to work from home. During time I work, she wants to play with me, during my wife works, she wants to play with her Cant concentrate on work while working from home. Task that usually takes 30min, now need minimum of 45min. Kinda killing routine to be at home all the time. Salary for March scares me. I guess I wont have any bonuses. No free time at all. My free time is from 22:00 to 00:00.

snip- So, as a newbie or an already established member, how have you been able to manage your time on this forum?
Not all people are jobless at this time even though there's implementing lockdown. I still have work even though there are some essential establishments forced close, the company that I have been working is a part of the exempted of banning or closing by the government. After my work, I can still manage my time here in the forum reading and sharing ideas while looking for updates status of this COVID-19. There's nothing have been benefited me during this outbreak of pandemic but fortunately, I have a still source of income that I think I will still survive together with my family. But there is one thing that I worried most and I hope it will never happen. ( Taking care of my self not being infected of COVID-19).

I agree, it changes my day. However, I am embarrassed to share that this lockdown benifited me in a good way. I have so much time in the forum, I learn and read a lot about crypto. The lockdown affects me in a good way but somehow I can't wish for it to continue. I am disturbed knowing that some people are struggling outside. Some are hungry and can't even go to work. I live in a third world country, and I am not directly affected but that doesn't mean I should turn blind eye with what's happening. So yeah, it benefited me in a good way, but I hope this will end and everything else will be back to normal soon. I hope people who struggle will receive help in this pandemic. Praying for the frontliners, workers, people who are sick, and those who are hungry and can't stay at home.

I wouldn't say that the lock-down benefited me when it comes to crypto and this forum. I have kids at home and much less time to "foll around" than I had when I was at work. But then again, without kids I would probably be bored at home ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Bad. Taste. Humor.

Ever since I escaped that lab few months ago, I've traveled so many countries and met so many people, amazing! I'll probably meet you soon. Stay tuned.

Dark humor is like food. Not everyone gets it. Getting paid for shitposting is even more pathetic!
