Not here long from Reddit, looking for suggestions of fun and entertaining places.

Anything but sport ir politics and I’m likely to check it out.

Thank you!

    I browse by All and just subscribe to anything that looks interesting. After a while, you should have some interesting/popular communities in your feed.

    Honestly, there are so few posts here compared to Reddit, I’m still browsing by All, even after 3 years. Every time I think I have enough interesting community subscriptions, some new community pops up in All that I want to follow.

      Also, make sure to switch between Hot, Active, Scaled and Top 6 Hour so things don’t get stale. It’s not as addicting as reddit, so there is going to be some adjustment.

        I keep it on Hot. When I run out of things to browse, it’s time to put my phone down and go do something productive.

        With Reddit, even with a curated subscription list, I never ran out of things to browse. I could accidentally spend all day on Reddit.

        With Lemmy, I have a stopping point. Eventually, I either lose interest in my feed, or I catch up to yesterday’s posts. Either way, it helps me to switch gears and get offline for a bit.
