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.

      Tthe sea of most upvoted content in r/all always come from the same handful of subs anyway. I don’t miss that one bit at all, but I do worry about my Google results showing empty Reddit links when I’m looking for reviews and answers about some niche products. Reddit is seriously the only place I trust in finding genuine reviews.

      Man I don’t know, I loved my homepage. Just so much shared passion for my hobbies and everyone was so positive and happy.

      I might just have to stay on Reddit, the equivalent communitues are absolutely dead here.

      Fully agree with r/popular though
