I’ve noticed that since I’ve started using the SmolNet, my habits have changed. I’m on the clearnet a lot less, and certainly using social media a lot less! I used to go on Reddit and Youtube on my iPad every night in my bes, but now I barely touch them. Not out of spite or anything, but because I’m genuinely not interested in using them. Instead, I spend my time browsing Gemini and Gopher, and checking on places like this. I feel more connected to this community, and I’m not so scared about sharing stuff here. I also feel like modern social media has too much stuff on it and feels overwhelming, if that makes sense.
Anyone else noticed anything like this?
