Less content, that is spread across multiple instances that can have duplicate communities.
You just can't keep doomscrolling here, the "active" search repeats all the time and the "best of the day" is like two pages.
And then there's specific communities that just... Stayed on Reddit.
I actually found that I really like the "hot" scrolling so much better. On Reddit, everything I came across had ~hundreds of comments and everything was multiple hours old. I didn't feel like I could contribute at all. But here... it feels a lot smaller, and most of the "hot" posts are not rubbish, so I feel like I can actually contribute!
Well for me, the real content of Reddit was finding an interesting thing and then reading a few dozen comments from people really in the know.
Here it's going to be a dozen top-level comments and maybe one of them will have a thread longer than three messages.
