Use social media without getting lost in it. Joyscroll helps you keep up with the accounts you care about without getting pulled into the endless scrolling of traditional social media feeds. Instead of jumping between multiple social apps and getting drawn into algorithmic recommendations, Joyscroll lets you build a focused feed around the people, creators, communities, and accounts you actually want to follow. YOUR FEED. YOUR CHOICES. Choose the accounts that matter to you and catch up on their latest content in one place. No algorithm deciding what should keep you watching. No endless stream of recommended posts. Just the content you chose to see. And unlike traditional social feeds, Joyscroll is designed to have an end. Once you've caught up, you can reach the bottom of your feed and move on with your day. BLOCK DISTRACTING APPS Joyscroll also helps you create boundaries around the social apps that tend to pull you back into scrolling. Create blocking rules that fit your routine. You can: • Block distracting apps during certain hours • Keep selected apps blocked throughout the day • Add friction before unlocking them • Use stricter rules when you need stronger boundaries • Protect your work, study, evenings, or sleep from distractions You decide which apps to block, when to block them, and how difficult they should be to unlock. LESS SCROLLING. NOTHING IMPORTANT MISSED. You shouldn't have to choose between deleting social media entirely and spending hours scrolling through it. There are friends you want to hear from, creators whose work you enjoy, communities you care about, and accounts worth following. Joyscroll is built around a different idea: You don't need less of what you love. You need less of everything else. WITH JOYSCROLL, YOU CAN: • Follow the accounts that matter to you • Bring the content you care about into one focused feed • Spend less time jumping between social apps • Reduce exposure to algorithmic recommendation feeds • Block distracting social media apps • Set schedules and boundaries around when you use them • Add friction before opening blocked apps • Build healthier, more intentional digital habits • Spend less time scrolling without disconnecting from what matters Joyscroll isn't about giving up your phone or deleting everything you enjoy. It's about taking back control of how you use social media. Keep what matters. Block the rest.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Joyscroll at none against Linkboard's 3. Linkboard's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly) and device support (4 vs 1). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
