I think I have the potential for overusing Lemmy and the Fediverse, which has caused me to overlook other important areas and activities, such as real-life responsibilities, and I feel somber without them. I also have the potential for dependence on interactions here for my well-being and confidence. What people usually describe this as is “Lemmy or social media addiction.” I really need to recognize any patterns in my own use of Lemmy and other social apps.
Overconsumption of Internet media is unhealthy. This includes Lemmy. Lemmy provides zero value for my real world life except serve as a distraction and time sink.
