I had been feeling a bit drawn in to reddit for the past few months before the divorce. I feel like the slower pace at which content comes out on Lemmy is good for me in that way. I can’t just scroll and scroll and scroll my entire day away.

Does anyone else feel similar?

    It is a blessing for someone like me who had a lot of difficulties to stay away from reddit. Lemmy gives me a slow paced window of reddit, with RSS feeds taking up the rest of the free time. So in the end the time I spend is more focussed on my interests but driven by reputable sites instead of someone in reddit.

      That’s a great way of putting it. Any advice on getting started with RSS feeds? I get how they work but do you have like an RSS feed app that you input the urls into and you get a notification or something?

        I use an open source app called feeder. Found it on the f droid store. So far it has worked really well.
