Is anyone else enjoying the slower pace of content?
Is anyone else enjoying the slower pace of content?
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?
You're viewing a single thread.
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
i hope the bulk of reddit stay where they are now. we dont need those really. also so many instances to read from. we dont seem to be running out of content here any time soon.
The only thing that somewhat bothers me is that, if I Google something 8/10 times I'll have a reddit thread(s) as the top result. I don't feel like giving reddit revenue or clicks though. (I do have adblock on PC and revanced on the reddit app so I try to minimise it).
But instead of using reddit every 1hr or so for 15min, I now use reddit 1 a week maybe for 10mins.
well they brought it on themselves. mods and users are the ones who made it what it is. Denying users third party apps is a straight spit in the face. best way is just consume their media with null telemetry and 0 shame.
I work in IT and reddit is (and will probably remain) a huge resource for my job. So I don't think that's going anywhere any time soon. Not using them as my main "feed" is a huge boon though.
Yep! Slowly we'll eventually get rid of it. Just like any migration :)
For real? Most of the frontpage of lemmy seems to be filled with memes and news about reddit, both of which I don't care about. Of course, I had curated my reddit feed over time and seems like it will take time to do the same over here.
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.
