It’s kind of empty and I thought about stopping my boycott of Reddit because I think it hurts the US more to use Reddit as a place to talk because unfortunately that’s where everybody is. Still couldn’t get myself to do it though, but I’m struggling to find content here on Lemmy and I suspect maybe I don’t know how to use it
Same here but I also feel like the emptiness helps with my screentime. Easier to check new topics and the continue with life :D i get very stuck on reddit with endless doomscrolling.
I think a big thing is that the front page is not completely changing in order to grab people’s attention every few minutes. Once you’ve seen what is trending you’re set for a little while, and if you don’t want to explore other communities and stuff you can go on to do something else with your day.
That said, the default sorting of front page posts on Lemmy (active?) has received some criticism - you should check out the other options for sorting content if you want it to look more fresh. :)

same! I’m also free from Facebook scrolling (which turned into BlueSky scrolling and then vanished)
