Is anyone else enjoying the slower pace of content? (lemmy.ml)

I had been feeling a bit drawn in to reddit for the past few months before the divorce. I feel like the slower pace at which content comes out on Lemmy is good for me in that way. I can't just scroll and scroll and scroll my entire day away.

Does anyone else feel similar?

I do, but sometimes I get a feeling that I'm not seeing all the content I should be seeing.

I think that's the feeling that I don't miss. It was like with reddit I could always get that fix. There was plenty of blue links left to satiate my dopamine drip. With Lemmy, the content is a lot less so I don't feel the need to just scroll and scroll. I hope on, get my kick, hit the end for that day, then go back to doing stuff IRL.
