Same, I like it here a lot. Kersploosh is great and listens before he decides. I really like the non-addictive quality of Lemmy in general, but specifically this instance. I check it in the morning and sometimes check a little later in the day, it's nice.

The absence of an algorithm, funnily enough, encourages me to spend more time here. Reddit, Facebook, Insta, etc., all utilize algorithms that feel as if someone is attempting to actively distract and sell you something and that quickly becomes stressful. So many distractions vying for mindspace saturates my attention and makes me, personally, feel less human.

Thank you to all of our lovely admins! It wouldn’t be possible without you!
