I notice myself checking it less and less due to the post sorting algorithm being infuriating. E.g. I’m sorting by “Top 6 Hours” and this post from 7 months ago is in my feed
Edit: and since I’ve now commented on this post, it’ll likely bubble into other people’s feeds and they’ll be just as confused as I was
I have it sort by New Comments, so yes, ha.
Also, I check it every five seconds. But it’s true that there’s not enough content for that to make sense. I feel restless on my phone.
I do too, ever since losing Apollo I’ve struggled to find something to fill that void. Ive tried various social media sites over the last couple of months but nothing has really stuck. Honestly not sure what to do or try at this point
Probably focused breathing and leaving our phones somewhere else for a few hours a day.
Maybe.
I think that’s the nicest way someone has ever said “touch grass” lol. I will agree though, losing access to Reddit made me realize how much mindless scrolling I would do on there. It’s difficult to see all of our comfy corners of the web crumble around us and not know what to do about it
Every day. I just put the lemmy app in the space of my reddit app and the transition was pretty easy.
Really want this to be my bae but struggling to find content and the fediverse is confusing. I don’t know if it’s me or the app.
Now I’m filling my time with YouTube and Firefox focus to avoid too many ads
Not often enough. I need to remind myself that reddit is a ridiculously ⬜ space that is so far from being genuinely understanding of the shit POCs deal with. I actually feel bad for not going on Lemmy as much-- I just wish the site was more popping.
How about now?
