I stopped using reddit when Apollo went down, and 2-3 hours of scrolling and active posting in some niche subs turned into ~30 mins of Lemmy per day, which I find much more healthy.

I didn’t start doing yoga, painting, or a side business, just feel much better having cut back the last big pillar of my social media addiction.

So thanks Steve!

(If it’s not too much to ask, please take a look at how you could improve instagram, you could save another 15 minute of my day)

        Nah, only Lemmy. I don’t like the Mastodon system where you follow users instead of communities. Like why would I want to follow some random internet strangers I don’t know, instead of an actual community of people with similar interests to have a meaningful discussion with? Any Twitter-like system where you follow users is just not my type of platform to use.

        Much easier to search for “Technology” and have a full community instead of finding a Mastodon User equivalent of LinusTechTips, which is just one person. I’d have to search for every tech person to get all the tech stuff. I prefer just one community for everything.
