I went searching for something today and instinctually clicked on a reddit link. Fortunately the sub was dark for the protest anyway, but it’s crazy how ingrained in me it is to go to reddit for everything.

Unfortunately now we’re going to have to get used to clicking on those clickbait tech articles like “TOP 10 FACEBOOK ALTERNATIVES 2023” to find information, and weed out the crappy blogs.

    Tbh the lack of people and content here has limited my doom scrolling tremendously.

    Also helps that everyone here is like a kid on their first day of high school or college. Zero toxicity! 😎

      Give it time. The toxic trolls will soon realize they’re all just talking to each other and come to the fediverse for fresh meat.

        I don’t think trolls think that hard. It’s all for instant gratification. There are few dedicated and motivated trolls. It’s a low effort sort of deal.
