MODERATORS
Reddit used to be slowly to refresh a long time ago, before they tweaked how the front page worked. You would pretty much have the top posts all day, and maybe it would change by the evening.
It was slower paced and fostered more discussion before people would move on, but it wasnt as good at giving the novelty dopamine hit compared to a faster churn.

You can check your favorite subs daily and not be overwhelmed by content. It's a nice thing
IMO, the pace feels slower because you aren't seeing any ads, and as a result, scrolling less and receiving more posts you really want to interact with.
Sure, the userbase is still coming together, but that's just a matter of time.

To be perfectly honest, no :(
Reddit is just so incredibly massive, there's always something new and interesting to find in /r/all
I hope one day that lemmy can achieve such reach.
I do appreciate it but I also notice that a lot of content is not getting moderated resulting in low quality posts/spam.
Yeah, that happens. As more mod tools come out I'm sure that will get better with time.
Yeah I Look at all most of the time and return way less frequent. But it scratches my itch for content enough that I stay and enjoy that stay.
It's ok
I am happy that it's more deterministic, as in you can refresh a page and the content usually stays the same. This helps with FOMO.
