I've heard other people talk about falling down Reddit holes over the years, but I was never this engaged on Reddit. I posted maybe a handful of times. I'd usually browse r/popular/top set to desktop version in Firefox on mobile without logging in. Here, though, I'm literally losing sleep and hours pass because the energy, the immediateness, the sense of joyous participation are all so intoxicating. Is this how you're experiencing this? I want to know.

Not to sound ungrateful to Ernest but kbin has been a time sink for me because load times were terribly slow until last night. And then also, there are too few users here discussing the content of the articles that instead of reading the debate to surmise the content of the article, I actually have to read the articles now ๐Ÿคฃ

I know, I know. I was probably part of the problem on reddit, but for what it's worth I mostly lurked. Lol

I never commented on anything on reddit. By the time I found something, everything that could be said, had been.

Oh of course it has because it was mostly not worth sorting by new.

I did used to comment or post regularly on my special interest subs, but not default subs like news.
