Before you tell me to touch grass, grass is kinda illegal here in the US (if you know what I mean by "grass" πŸ˜‰).

It’s a good thing Lemmy is small, because you still run out of content faster. Less time staring at your phone is usually still a good thing.

I open Lemmy, "oh still the same top posts from 6 hours ago", goes back to doing whatever I was doing

I sort by All/Hot, and if that's not enough, I turn on All/New to get maximum "High" on Lemmy.

Gotta sort by hot so you don't miss out on those 3 year old posts with like one comment from someone 6 months ago confused about why the article is so out of date.

xD

the reason it's hot is because someone forgot to turn off the stove from months ago

I accidentally sorted by old once, saw a bunch of "testing" posts, it was kinda amusing.

That's cause those posts have been boosted, or so I hear.

Yeah but then I wonder if maybe there's so new good comments or some memes posted IN the comments that I might have missed. If you really have a problem you can have a problem on Lemmy too.

Someone taught me the "hide read" workflow and now it's harder for me to run out of content. Double edged sword though.

What if I'm not doing anything else? πŸ₯Ή

I usually open YouTube at that point...

I am bored of YouTube now

most of it is meaningless clickbait with dicksucking face and ALL CAPS TITLE

even good creators are nowadays forced to insert crap to make their videos over 8-10 mins long to please the algorithm

it feels like there is no organic content available even if there is, it is buried deeply inside
