It's not, but since Lemmy and Reddit seem the same on a surface level (and unlike what many people say, I sort by New and so never see old content), I can doomscroll and waste time on both platforms. However, with Lemmy, this bad habit of mine has been tempered severely, and I don't exactly know why. It's a good thing, but a good thing that just came out of nowhere.
Some people here say because there's no recommendations, which I feel is a good answer, but it feels just a little short. Is that really it?
