Which Life Pro Tip disappointed you? (lemmy.world)

For me it was "buy high quality pillow" because you sleep for one thrid of a day etc. I needed a new pillow anyway so I came to the store and bought the best they had. And it was ... ok. Like it's a fine pillow but my sleeping haven't improved really, it's basically the same. So I was disapointed :(

So, which life pro tip disappointed you?

My solution to this is to stack a soft pillow on top of a firm pillow.

Doesn't that make your neck sore? I've used thin pillows all my life, whenever I use a pillow when travelling (hotel, someone else's house etc) it's ALWAYS to thick. I can't imagine stacking two pillows on top of each other.

Ah but if both pillows are old enough to vote it's like just having one!

Nah. I’m mostly a side sleeper but even on my back, my head normally compresses the pillows enough that it’s comfortable. I occasionally wake up having tossed a pillow off to the side, but that’s rare.
