Guys, I'm starting to think the problem is me...

I totally relate to this. I didn't like the environment on R*ddit, but here people are much nicer, so the addiction is even worse!

How do you know? I could be just a random, irrelevant nobody

No, they're MetaPhrastes

Get off my lawn!!!

There, did that help?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

You asked nicely, so I'll just get off your lawn. Sorry.

My only complaint is it's a bit more meta here, but that's understandable given its growth and why it grew (reddit's poor decisions)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I wasn't really using Reddit much before Reddit had its meltdown and the threadiverse exploded onto the scene. I've had a lot of fun here. Frankly I think I understand how the threadiverse works more than I understand how Reddit works.

I've had a similar experience with Mastodon. Wasn't a big Twitter user, but now I'm more active on Mastodon than I ever was on Twitter. On each of multiple Mastodon accounts.

You're the problem, it's you?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

At teatime, everybody agrees.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah, i really thought I'd spend a lot less time scrolling without reddit

First couple days, sure... then i started to find more and more axtive communities, and couldn't help but keep logging in

I'd upvote, but your at 69 so I won't. If it changes: wasn't me, I swear!

Time to upvote. That # has passed.

Feels like going from weed to cocaine. Although I have no idea what it feels like.
