I used to be a daily Reddit doomscroller, but now I just vibe on Lemmy. I only ever visit reddit now to experience my niches that don't yet have a community here, and that's just to watch, not contribute.

I look forward to the future, where communities aren't corralled into one website, where different interests can be free of anything overarching.

I somehow end up doom scrolling here on Lemmy. Seems all my feed is news and technology is doom and gloom. I wish there were more discussions and jokes in the comments like ask reddit had. I participate every once in a while but I miss lurking and reading this type of content on my phone.

Just block the news and politics communities. It's good for your sanity.

Yeah I've started doing that, just too depressing otherwise.
