… Which are, by design, addictive.
The upvote/downvote system particularly.
You get a rush every time your comment or post goes into the 3 digits in upvotes, be honest.
You don’t need a sophisticated algorithm to have an addictive design either. All you need is for your home feed to give you more of what you want, which is what your subscribed tab does by default.
Lastly, the “ingroup/outgroup” psychological trigger lemmy induces you into (which was copied from Reddit), is also in itself highly engaging.
