Not just lemmy, but every fediverse platform can and should be trying to do better than centralized social media when it comes to mentally harmful / addictive patterns in our apps. I’ve tried to do some things to minimize addiction, but there’s a lot more we could be doing.
If you were to rank the things about lemmy that are most addictive, what would they be? Then we can think of ways to minimize or subvert them, where feasible.
IMO infinite scrolling, seeing the same things over again, and wanting to check like your own content likes / dislikes, are the worst offenders.
