I had been feeling a bit drawn in to reddit for the past few months before the divorce. I feel like the slower pace at which content comes out on Lemmy is good for me in that way. I can’t just scroll and scroll and scroll my entire day away.

Does anyone else feel similar?

    The thing with reddit is you would scroll and scroll and not find anything interesting, just little blips of dopamine in sea of inane content. I don’t like everything posted on lemmy but I find it far higher quality overall.

      But you also can’t just scroll endlessly through unknown stuff. There are thousands of rich, but extremely niche subs. There’s one for cultivating worms!

      On Reddit, you could just scroll through /all and get bombarded with stuff you would never even think about looking for. That’s (at least currently) not possible here.
