I feel like I'm spending less time on social media after switching to Lemmy (lemmy.world)

Maybe it's just because there's less content on Lemmy as of right now, but I remember doomscrolling Reddit, but now I only briefly open Lemmy once or twice a day.

Could this be an example of the affects of addictive social media?

Me too! I really like it. It makes me feel fresher and more open to the world around me.

I don't understand. How is Lemmy not a form of social media?

Yeah Lemmy is a wasteland and nothing to see here. Reddit is so less usable without Boost I rarely use it now either, also some of my communities are still in blackout or even non existing.
