Every time I open e621 I spend between 30 minutes to 2 hours every day (or sometimes more than once a day) and it’s because every time I open it there are ALOT of new posts and artists that I didn’t even know existed and I look at all their posts and repeat.

I’m not asking for help and I can control this, but it’s like what the Youtube algorithm is for some people who spend a lot of time just scrolling without watching any videos.

Honestly, it’s impressive the quality that’s in e621.

Does this happen to you?

    For various things, I refresh things I know won’t be updated for hours, or refresh constantly even though there are only a few new things a day.

      Same-exact-thing. It’s like when you check the fridge knowing there’s nothing in there.

        For physical things, my memory of state will usually prevent those things; Although if I have a package coming, I will refresh the tracking every 10 minutes, even though I know I will likely get an email when it arrives.
