Ever since the blackout, I've had more time, more energy, and I could focus better on the tasks at hand. Kbin/Lemmy being smaller makes the feed less depressing and more thoughtful, so it doesn't affect me the same way.

Reddit did us all a solid ๐Ÿ˜‚

I think the entirety of reddit has established patterns that are hard/impossible to break. Which caused me to develop a certain feeling of disgust when viewing at any sort of behavioral reddit meta.

It was getting difficult to post, difficult to comment, and difficult to find content that stimullates the mind intellectually. And it yet remains to be seen if federated link&news aggregators will share that same fate, or divert and do it differently.
