I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it’s because I am limited to using the desktop and can’t aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself aimlessly browsing through r/AskReddit and asking and answering pointless questions.
I’ve been enjoying the communities I’ve seen here so not really been using Reddit the same way as before. Due to the blackout I’ve largely gotten over the doom scrolling I would once do cold turkey. I’ve opened the site on google searches when there’s a relevant post to a problem I’m having, but tbh that’s it. Now I’ve been spending time searching for communities here and learning fediverse stuff, and it’s been a lot of fun honestly
