A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected]. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

6) No US Politics.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try [email protected] or [email protected]

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

How many hot/active local pages do you scroll through before taking a break (self.asklemmy)

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.

[–] Donjuanme 3 points 2 years ago

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 2 years ago (1 children)

Wait? You take breaks? :-)

[–] Donjuanme 2 points 2 years 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"

[–] EndOfLine 3 points 2 years ago

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.

After not interacting with a post in a few arbitrary units. Lemmy is still small enough that you can interact like once a week within a /com and still not miss anything.
