It's alarming to me how much I see genuine sentiment being expressed that equates to "do less, be less, it's better that way".

It's a relative tip.
Absolutely true if you're just pushing yourself to burnout at the sake of your health.
Absolutely false if you're wasting whole days on weed & games alone.

Rejecting burnout / the conditions that cause burnout is perfectly reasonable.

Putting your clothes in a clothes hamper shouldn't cause burnout

At no point does the article say this or infer it, at most the article says it's a side-effect of burnout.
Even then, it's a _story_, it's not saying 'if you are burnt out this will happen'.
As opposed to burnout, hurt yourself and your family, and possibly die or have health issues?
Gnome mode is replacing work with play.
Most great things in human creation emerged from play, not work. Work is what's done to refine the output of play.
Nobody's stopping you from getting to KDE Mode

It's alarming to me that you'd find that alarming.
