Or at least less so than Reddit. It's good, but, I can't put my finger on it. Even when the content is good, the servers are up, and I'm getting notifications responding to comments, it's never come to me doomscrolling for hours.

Edit: Guys, guys, I'm not trying to say Lemmy should be addictive or Reddit is better because it is. The opposite. I thought being addicted to something was always a bad thing? I was just curious as that I rarely ever see the content droughts people talk about, so I can scroll for as long as I want to with no interruptions, but unlike with Reddit, I don't, and I would want to know a reason why. Is it psychological? Something behind the scenes? The type of people here?

It's like listening to the best band in your town and then comparing it to the music at the top of the global charts. The pure scale means you're gonna get better bands if you include "everyone". But I totally also hope Lemmy gets bigger. As a platform it isn't inferior in terms of UX. We just need everyone to switch.

Tbh, I find most of the music on top of the global charts to be obnoxious bullshit.

That's fair. Let's rather go with a music platform. That has everything.
