I caught myself loads of times scrolling on Reddit while not even paying attention, or while scrolling on Reddit to then close it immediately opening Reddit again to continue scrolling.

It felt just like any other social media app, scrolling mindlessly, for at least a few hours a day. I noticed this has changed since I've been using Lemmy, where I might spend 30 minutes a day on. I'm curious if other experience this too! It feels nice to be freed from Reddit.

I mainly access reddit by Google searches, so yes unfortunately I am still tied down to reddit somewhat. Too mad Lemmy never is a result on Google when asking a question

My hope is that there will be eventually. Lemmy is slowly surfacing already, before, when searching 'lemmy' on google, the musician had a big display, now it's toned down and shared with lemmy making some of the top results.
