I, much like basically everyone here, have been avoiding Reddit when possible, and the content here just doesn’t hit the same. My fried dopamine receptors were certainly screaming for stimulation early on but now I feel an urge to touch grass and breathe fresh air. What is this? Am I dying? I still hate the angry lightbulb in the sky.

In all seriousness though, I’ll admit that I was kind of addicted to Reddit and now I don’t want to go near it. Maybe this will turn a new leaf for me. If not here, I’ll probably find some other way to satiate my dopamine receptors through more productive means.

    you nailed it. Even when I went to reddit to read tech tips or check in with my gardening community, I got sucked into outrage topics that were pinned everywhere. It was slow how it happened too

      Reddit has been boiling its users for years. We’re lucky u/spez walked in with a flamethrower and scorched the dish they were cooking…
