honestly it's replaced reddit for me in a good way, because it has just enough new content that I can check it before bed every day and scroll for a bit, but not enough to where I spend entire lunch breaks on it. sometimes I go days without even checking it. if anything it's made my relationship with my browser / phone healthier than reddit.

Exactly. Lemmy is an anti-doomscrolling platform and that's very healthy and amazing.

I somehow replaced reddit with instagram reels and youtube shorts.

Yeah they do. Would you believe me if i said giving up social media is harder than giving up nicotine?

100%, all I really want is something I can look at and perhaps sensibly chuckle at when I have a few minutes... Not a pasasitic brain worm that really wants me to pay attention to it.

The only problem I have, is that I can't seem to find the porn.
