When do you stop doom scrolling and: take a break, swap to /all communities, browse by new, or start over from the beginning to see if anything new comes up?

I find myself going about 6 or 7 pages in.

Yeah same around those number of pages too.

Hopefully we will all start creating (eh, maybe?) commenting (c'mon I want everyone's opinions) and participating in smaller communities (upvotes are the least you can do!) to get more diverse content as we go deeper into our doom scrolling

You guys are taking breaks?

[–] bquinlan 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wait? You take breaks? :-)

[–] Donjuanme 2 points 1 year ago

Not so much breaks as "I think I saw this yesterday, I did I did see this yesterday, let's see what's happening on all of the other federated sites"

I am at about 4 or 5 pages before I cycle through my favorite feed options (subscribed to local to all / hot to new to top-day.

After that I tend to think that I should go outside or get back to work or whatever else I should be doing.
