What do you do with all the free time you got once you stopped using reddit?

Oh I agree 100% but there are definitely aspects of Reddit that just aren’t replaceable with Lemmy. Lemmy has almost no car communities (besides FuckCars), which is a hobby that takes up a lot of my time. I’ve replaced the time I spent on Reddit car subs with /o/ and other forums.

As for my other interests, though, I think Lemmy is definitely better for my mental health. Nobody needs a constant stream of new memes to access whenever they want. I was developing a serious case of brainrot mindlessly scrolling when I still used Reddit.

Yeah definitely. That’s what I was saying about spreading my net wider here. I try communities of topics that I’m not necessarily interested in, but could be. Being a bit more open minded giving new things a chance.
