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?

Honestly It's been way worse for me lol, the discussions here are actually meaningful so I can sink way too much time reading threads instead of getting bored after looking at 5 consecutive reposted memes on reddit

Edit: I'm not complaining though, this is definitely better

Yeah, it feels like having a much smaller community harkens back to earlier internet days. I remember spending hours on the world of warcraft off topic forum back in the day. Always had great conversations and met some awesome interesting people.
