Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

When I used the official Reddit app before I saw the light of RIF, I had push notifications. I didn't have them on RIF except when I opened it, and I found that to be a lot nicer on my psyche.
I have email notifications enabled on Lemmy right now, which turns into a push. But I don't really mind as much because the conversations here are nicer, and it's usually replies to me trying to be helpful, which are nice to see.
One thing I like about lemmy (at least for now) is since communities are a lot smaller than reddit their is a limit of new content that can be generted per day (if you sub to 20 or less comunities).
This kinda helps avoid the reddit doom scrooling (I'm guilty of this especially during the blackouts and spez issues).
It had gotten to the point that I didn't even like opening rif because I would get nasty replies from people who had no idea what they were talking about. I'm not sure if it's a troll tactic or representative of the average age of a redditor.
That is the biggest problem with reddit, they let all of their users engage in all of the public communities and moderation is simply non-existent.
