Anyone else feel that Lemmy just isn't addictive?
Anyone else feel that Lemmy just isn't addictive?
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?

I am kinda glad, and it reminds me of early Digg. When I first used Digg, it didn't tailor the order or content of anything to you, it didn't use an algorithm to keep throwing content at you, changing the order of what you see, and Lemmy reminds me of this.
I'm not here up be addicted or scroll endlessly, if anything, Lemmy feels healthier, like I can walk away and do something else.
That must have been very early in Digg's lifetime. I remember power users like MrBabyMan always being in the first few positions on the front page.
