Comment on American former tech executive explains how to make users more addicted

Of course Lemmy and such inherit some of that design even without the money behind it - there’s certainly a little dopamine hit when I see that one of my comments has gotten a reply, or when I check and see that it’s been upvoted.
Not having the incentive to enshittify is good though.

I upvote the same way like I used to on Reddit, but I have no idea what the hell my karma is
I don’t even think it matters but it’s nice to see a post with like 800 upvotes
We’ve been bamboozled and conditioned
Sorry, here’s your dopamine 🔼

What if, instead of having to doomscroll to get that sweet, sweet dopamine hit, you’d just occasionally, and randomly be sent a message with a funny meme, or interesting story, or whatever it takes to convince your brain to hook you up?

That’s basically newsletters, forum digests, podcasts, etc.

Hell nah. I don’t give a damn about your up votes, down votes, replies. Hell I don’t even look at my inbox and I’ll be damned if I will end up back in this thread.
I’m just here for the occasional meme and maybe get a bit of news, and I’m all out of good news.

I got you both. Enjoy.

Oh, shit… I accidentally got two hits! And all I did was read what others commented.
