> When it comes to the doom part of doom scrolling, Reddit especially can be even worse than traditional social media.

It can be, but it can also (still) be sanitized.

I typically visit old.reddit.com once every day or two on a desktop browser without ads to check the subreddit for the city I live in. No doomscrolling is really possible.

There's no way to consume meta/tiktok content in a comparable way.
