honestly it's replaced reddit for me in a good way, because it has just enough new content that I can check it before bed every day and scroll for a bit, but not enough to where I spend entire lunch breaks on it. sometimes I go days without even checking it. if anything it's made my relationship with my browser / phone healthier than reddit.

Exactly. Lemmy is an anti-doomscrolling platform and that's very healthy and amazing.

Horseshit. Lemmy is plastered in content about climate change, the Middle East, and other depressing shit.

I think they mean doom scrolling as in algorithmic dopamine loops

Exactly, and that the content eventually just ends. I didn't mean that every post is positive news.
