I should have spent the day away from reddit but I didn't, and actually this was the best experience I've had using the site in a while!

there's significantly less politics, I discovered some cool new subreddits due to so many of the biggest communities being closed, threads were pleasantly concise, and I just felt like it was a much more mentally healthy scrolling experience.

it's too bad that this is all going to end in a couple days and it'll be back to normal except without rif.
