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 use the app Inoreader for that. No idea if it's the best, just the first one I tried and I'm happy with it.

Then you just subscribe to the feeds you are interested in. Almost every blog or news site has an RSS feed. Just make sure you don't subscribe to any that make dozens of posts per day, or you'll end up overwhelmed. My personal favorite feeds are the top 10 daily hacker news and a few youtubers I like.

Feedly is the one I use, it's very nice having the news widget on my phone home screen that'll periodically auto refresh with new stories
