    I am one of those addicted to doom-scrolling. I started browsing kbin exclusively since saturday, for sure theres less content and its growing pains (downtimes, ddos checks etc) but also less outrage, pessimism, pointless arguments etc. Over all it has been a really nice and refreshing experience, im less anxious and less angry and I think I feel a bit better. I think, form me, leaving reddit is not only about the API changes but about peace of mind and I believe there has to be others like me looking to get out of the “doomer” cycle that will start considering coming here as it grows. My only concern is if this places wont become like reddit eventually and I will just be sitting it my chair staring blankly at the screen while thinking “What a shithole of a world we live in”.

    IDK, Im not good with words, But I know I like it here and Im staying. Thanks to everyone who makes this possible, devs, mods, commenters and lurkers. c:
