Is anyone else enjoying the slower pace of content? (lemmy.ml)

I had been feeling a bit drawn in to reddit for the past few months before the divorce. I feel like the slower pace at which content comes out on Lemmy is good for me in that way. I can't just scroll and scroll and scroll my entire day away.

Does anyone else feel similar?

True but you don't really mindlessly scroll through those communities, you mostly go on r/all or other popular communities for that. I used to watch a ton of content on r/videos but then some days I would scroll through the front page and just not find anything relatable to me. I joined the site pretty early, like back when it was mostly tech people. So to me the site got worse content wise but if that was the worst of it I could of accepted just hanging out in niche subs.

I just visited r/all and mostly just found American politics and low effort content. It's just not for me personally.
