Or at least less so than Reddit. It’s good, but, I can’t put my finger on it. Even when the content is good, the servers are up, and I’m getting notifications responding to comments, it’s never come to me doomscrolling for hours.

Edit: Guys, guys, I’m not trying to say Lemmy should be addictive or Reddit is better because it is. The opposite. I thought being addicted to something was always a bad thing? I was just curious as that I rarely ever see the content droughts people talk about, so I can scroll for as long as I want to with no interruptions, but unlike with Reddit, I don’t, and I would want to know a reason why. Is it psychological? Something behind the scenes? The type of people here?

    It literally says right in the side bar:

    A community of privacy and FOSS enthusiasts, run by Lemmy’s developers

      I’m talking about the entirety of Lemmy, not just your instance

      I also love the privacy/FOSS content, it’s just that Reddit left a huge hole for me with normal people content that I hope to see more of here in the future
