I definitely find the content to be deeper and more meaningful. I like the slower pace but I find myself excited to see posts with lots of comments.
There also seems to be a deeper sense of community, at least in a few instances and communities, than I've experienced in a long time, excluding some of the more niche-er subs
I've engaged more with posts on Lemmy than all of my years on Reddit due to the deeper sense of community.
It's really cut down the amount of endless doom scrolling I'd do throughout the day as well
It sort of feels like the old days of reddit. I had forgotten how nice it was.
Ah yes, like the "how do I not poop for 3 days?" post.
Instant classic
