I, much like basically everyone here, have been avoiding Reddit when possible, and the content here just doesn’t hit the same. My fried dopamine receptors were certainly screaming for stimulation early on but now I feel an urge to touch grass and breathe fresh air. What is this? Am I dying? I still hate the angry lightbulb in the sky.

In all seriousness though, I’ll admit that I was kind of addicted to Reddit and now I don’t want to go near it. Maybe this will turn a new leaf for me. If not here, I’ll probably find some other way to satiate my dopamine receptors through more productive means.

    Agreed. On Reddit you’d routinely see posts with 1,000s, even 10,000s of likes, even absolutely garbage posts would have 100s just from lurkers scrolling through upvoting everything they see.

    Even 1 like here feels more real than 100s over there.
