Or at least less so than Reddit. It’s good, but, I can’t put my finger on it. Even when the content is good, the servers are up, and I’m getting notifications responding to comments, it’s never come to me doomscrolling for hours.
Edit: Guys, guys, I’m not trying to say Lemmy should be addictive or Reddit is better because it is. The opposite. I thought being addicted to something was always a bad thing? I was just curious as that I rarely ever see the content droughts people talk about, so I can scroll for as long as I want to with no interruptions, but unlike with Reddit, I don’t, and I would want to know a reason why. Is it psychological? Something behind the scenes? The type of people here?
Precisely the opposite. It’s great! Especially since I rarely stop due to a lack of content, since I’m always on New (but sometimes I’m prevented from seeing because the server’s down).
It was actually because there’s been so much content, yet I still spend a relatively healthy amount of time on the site. Why? On the surface, it’s the same thing, but in practice, it’s not.
