I feel like my twitter feed has gotten worse lately and a lot of accounts I follow have made the move over there.
I am so set in my doom scrolling ways tho.

Personally I feel much better about myself after leaving every Discord I was a part of, including one with some very longtime friends, because I no longer stay up until 3 am scrolling through or talking about whatever bullshit and hopping between voice calls before going to bed feeling empty. It’s all part of the same feedback loop that was taking time away from literally anything else more productive. Even playing a video game for 5 hours felt better than that.
yeah, the reason i give discord leeway is i think it’s a place where you’re more likely to build like, a lasting connection with someone or whatever, like make real internet friends, than scrolling-based social media. which i think is a fair mark in its favour, as that’s a good option to have for those struggling to build irl connections. but it definitely can end up causing the same patterns like you say. i just have a small, not super active friendcord now, i left any public ones i was addicted to.
