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’s gotten addicting to me. But not the same way reddit was. I’m glad there’s not much politics here.
Although hexbear being federated is like having an angry toddler in the house crying over spilled milk. I’ve yet to see a post from them that doesn’t sound like it’s coming from a basement dungeon computer room.
