Does anyone else think that maybe this may cause a shift back to times before internet

Honestly, reddits API change was an awful thing to do but my phone usage has plummeted since then. I've been trying Lemmy but it's not been an easy 1:1 replacement and I find myself not engaging or feeling so invested in conversations and content as much.

That works in my favor, though, because I really have been spending way too much time looking at screens anyway.

Most corporate media tries to get you to spend too much time on their apps/sites. Getting on the fediverse felt like moving on from a toxic ex.
