It feels like this is very intense here compared to other social media services/protocols.

Why is that?

    I was there almost 15 years and it is mind-meltingly toxic compared to lemmy.

    And yet it’s fristratingly addictive at the same time.

    Sometimes I have to go back to ask a question on r/skyrim mods and I always make the mistake of doing a bit of scrolling. Thankfully I always catch myself 20-30 minutes in, but that’s still time out of my day that I don’t consoder well spent.

    Lemmy has no algorithm to feed that addiction, and I really appreciate it
