Feeling like I’m spending too much time doing nothing, and I know the mobile app for Lemmy on my phone is a huge part of this. Has anyone else tried removing Lemmy apps from their phone to cut down? Any unexpected consequences you have noticed?

    Just switching to lemmy from reddit significantly cut down my screentime, especially with how small lemmy is right now where I can browse most of my subcriptions’ content for the day within a total of 2 hours. Nowadays, lemmy is what I do when I have downtime, not the other way around where I don’t have downtime because I’m constantly scrolling.

    If lemmy is still eating up a ton of time in your day, then yes deleting your mobile apps will definitely help.

      I’m in the same boat, I spend way less time on Lemmy than I did Reddit. I consider that a good thing, happy I made the switch. Plus I feel like posting/commenting on Lemmy is much more rewarding than Reddit so that’s another bonus imo.
