Maybe it's just because there's less content on Lemmy as of right now, but I remember doomscrolling Reddit, but now I only briefly open Lemmy once or twice a day.

Could this be an example of the affects of addictive social media?

i find myself missing 99% of what i used to get out of social media and i'm forcing myself to see that as a good thing so that i can find more productive uses of my time; it's crazy to learn that all of the content i'm addicted to is completely dominated by reddit and doesn't exist anywhere else in the entirety of the world wide web.
