Maybe it’s just because there’s less content on Lemmy as of right now, but I remember doomscrolling Reddit, but now I only briefly open Lemmy once or twice a day.
Could this be an example of the affects of addictive social media?

It has made me more aware how often I rely on my phone for cheap entertainment. I get an impulse to take it out and then remember there’s nothing good to watch. Obviously I still make it on here, but the lesser diversity and higher repetiveness is throwing me for a loop. Annoyingly, it means more time scrolling past ads on Facebook, but I feel I’m avoiding my phone more. I have been searching out more long format YouTube videos though which is a tradeoff. I wonder if it’s temporary and if I’ll stick to doing more beyond these tiny rapid endorphin kicks
Take the win when you get the will to not listen to that brain itching. Basically fighting an addiction it seems.
