I feel like I'm spending less time on social media after switching to Lemmy (lemmy.world)

Maybe it's just because there's less content on Lemmy as of right now, but I remember doomscrolling Reddit, but now I only briefly open Lemmy once or twice a day.

Could this be an example of the affects of addictive social media?

I find my instances down. I couldn't access lemmy.world for hours. But I still tried to reach. Does it mean I'm more addicted than you?

What, you don't have accounts on backup instances?

I couldn't've written that otherwise.

But it's still concerning.
