「黃家駒 Wong Ka Kui」 | (aka: 鳳凰院 凶真 Hououin Kyouma)Does anyone else feel like fediverse (particulary Lemmy) is getting more and more quieter?
dkcI’ve noticed I spent less time on Lemmy than I did on Reddit. Some of that may have to due with content, but I think it’s mostly Lemmy isn’t manipulating what I’m looking at to keep my dopamine hits coming. It definitely feels like withdrawal at times.
I am learning to appreciate the joy in opening Lemmy after I checked it a few hours ago and not seeing anything new and having the freedom to close the app again.
Absolutely this. I banned the big platforms from my phone and only use Fediverse apps now. When I opened Instagram it kinda felt like when I had a relapse and became flooded with sadness, rage and Weltschmerz. Here I check for a couple of minutes, still my conditioning to reach for scrolling and move on with my day.
And whenever I write a comment here I’m not scared to regret it soon after.
