Seriously.
Going back to Reddit to read about the blackouts was jarring after spending the past few days on here. I didn't realize just how negative, toxic, and mentally draining Reddit was until I stopped using it.
It really is like night and day. I quit reddit on Sunday when I noticed my feed was already looking empty. I've been here ever since and last night for the first time in a while I went to bed feeling happy with life. It's amazing how I never noticed the toxicity that was seeping into my day.
I'm noticing the same, but at this point I'm not sure if it's a coincidence or something real. Lemmy definitely feels like a breath of fresh air though.
