I am all for having more people, but being an obscure "site" is a good filter imo.
The Voyager App has some bugs, but for what it is, I'm amazed by the polish.
On Reddit, all I did was look at memes from the top subreddits, spending my day filtering through the vastly unfunny majority. It's also through memes that I kept up to date with the news.
On Lemmy, I decided to not fall into that sort of doom scrolling again. I blocked all meme communities. I browse through "All" to find any obscure community that peaks my interest, block the ones that don't and add the ones that do to "Home" or "Favourites".
This means my feed is much more curated than the slop I was ingesting on Reddit. I still doom scroll sometimes 😅, but it's better now than it was before, I think.
peaks my interest
Pique - verb - arouse (interest or curiosity).
"with his scientific curiosity piqued, he was looking forward to being able to analyse his find"
On Lemmy you can't even doomscroll. There's not enough (meme) content to sustain that
