Just.. content. I open my Lemmy app once and I've seen everything it will show me for the day, or sometimes for multiple days. I open reddit and I can scroll for hours.

If all you want is "content" you can browse Lemmy by /all, sort by new, and also scroll for hours. That isn't how I use Lemmy (or Reddit) though, and it's not how I would recommend using it.

I open my Lemmy app once and I've seen everything it will show me for the day, or sometimes for multiple days.

I almost exclusively browse by subscribed. When I first came to Lemmy, I kept subscribing to communities until I had too much content in my subscribed feed to keep up with. Over time, I've gradually unsubscribed to communities I'm only tangentially interested in, as communities for my main interests have grown.

Do you think an approach like this would work for you?

No. I already sort by all, and new is generally too low quality and frankly still too slow. I also switch to all on Reddit once I've skimmed over the first couple pages of my feed

Maybe Top of the day / Top of 12 hours? New can be low quality indeed
