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?

    i hope the bulk of reddit stay where they are now. we dont need those really. also so many instances to read from. we dont seem to be running out of content here any time soon.

      The only thing that somewhat bothers me is that, if I Google something 8/10 times I’ll have a reddit thread(s) as the top result. I don’t feel like giving reddit revenue or clicks though. (I do have adblock on PC and revanced on the reddit app so I try to minimise it).

      But instead of using reddit every 1hr or so for 15min, I now use reddit 1 a week maybe for 10mins.

        I work in IT and reddit is (and will probably remain) a huge resource for my job. So I don’t think that’s going anywhere any time soon. Not using them as my main “feed” is a huge boon though.

          Yep! Slowly we’ll eventually get rid of it. Just like any migration :)
