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?
No. I feel like I’m stumbling in a desert.
I definitely see it as a double edge sword. On one hand I don’t mindlessly scroll as much, on the other, the lack of content is just because I’m figuring out the quirks, and I have a feeling finding new and weird communities could be a McGuffin quest.
I’ve been constantly going on https://browse.feddit.de/ to see if there any new communities that I’d like to join. Really do wish it were easier to discover communities but it is what it is
I made https://lemmyverse.net for this reason 😊
Great site but list view for communities looks like this on my phone, the instances list view worked fine though.
Not sure if the privacy settings would allow such a thing, but would a recommended feature based on your account be a possibility for the future?
If you ever need to scratch the itch for content, I suggest checking out https://upstract.com/ - you might even find something to contribute. ;)
I definitely find the content to be deeper and more meaningful. I like the slower pace but I find myself excited to see posts with lots of comments.
There also seems to be a deeper sense of community, at least in a few instances and communities, than I’ve experienced in a long time, excluding some of the more niche-er subs
deeper and more meaningful
Ah yes, like the “how do I not poop for 3 days?” post.
You can check your favorite subs daily and not be overwhelmed by content. It’s a nice thing
