I was having difficulty with servers being down and nothing loading when I first deleted Reddit. Things finally seem stable so I've been a lot more active.
I sew my own clothing amongst other things and am generally crafty (woodworking, etc).
I don't know if it's possible to completely avoid consumerism (gotta buy the fabric, materials, etc) but it's a lot easier to find things to repurpose. I have made clothing out of old bedsheets and curtains, for example. People repurpose pallet wood all the time as well.
I thought quicksand would be a much bigger problem in my day to day life.
