That is a benefit and a drawback for me. The benefit is that I am less addicted to my phone because the content is finite. The drawback is that I need my fix damnit.
When browsing the home page (this is just my subjective experience) I have to be more active in blocking political based communities (just not my thing, I like being happy) but if there happens to be a community for some niche topic that I'm interested in (it was pretty much guaranteed that there was one for everything on Reddit) the posts and comments are generally higher quality. Less reposts, less bots, etc.
Overall, a more enjoyable experience if I tailor it, but still too small for it to satisfy all of my niche fandom based needs. I'm choosing to stick with it and share it in the hope that it grows enough to do that.
Windows hate and politics. It's nothing like reddit imo but it's all I've got as I've abandoned reddit.
