I realize it won’t be like this forever, but while scrolling Lemmy I eventually come to a point when I start to see a lot of old posts and it’s a perfect signal that I’ve done more than enough scrolling for the day

Honestly, it gives me hope.
My best experiences online have been as part of smaller communities where you can actually know and recognize other people. I see people commenting on threads and I can remember them talking in a different thread (or multiple threads). So it is much easier to know ‘ok that guy is touchy about this thing but is otherwise a decent person’ and not treat everyone like a 1-dimensional character.
There is also a place to politely challenge others, especially when you see more out on a long (touchy) expressions.
I describing myself there on that limb as well of course. I’ve found myself well challenged several times on a limb.
