Everyone complains about shorts or reels format. But reading comments is the short format of reading.
And I can attest the the feeling is the same, quick dopamine release and after a session we can’t barely remember most of what was read, just like short video format.
Yep, I have encountered mastodon and the like posts here on Lemmy etc. Somehow a lot of them show up in !firefox@fedia.io
Well actually being in fedia.io it would makes sense, since fedia being mbin supports threaded posts and microblog posts.
