    I genuinely feel better because of it. If I really try I can scroll for hours, but I find that I’m using my phone less because I can get caught up on my feed for the day by scrolling for a few minutes

      I’m having the same experience and I was worried at first that breaking news wouldn’t get to me quickly, but that hasn’t been the case.

        Chiming in, it feels super weird to say, but in part I do like it here because I use it less. Among the things I wanted out of social media, I would not have pegged “inactivity” as an apparent plus and there’s no getting around doing something else.

        Does make me feel a little guilty, since I’m in essence lurking and then only every couple days when I still want this to succeed and could be offloading literally anything to make that happen. I’m just…distracted at the moment. With not social media.
