Um yeah, a diffuser is a very different thing, though there are tiny little humidifiers for use on office desks. No clue if they do any good. The bigger medical humidifiers are the only way I can breathe enough to sleep at all sometimes. I would not be using one in the same room as your electronics!

I still don't really understand how they're different. Google just thinks a humidifier is bigger and a diffuser is smaller

Medical humidifiers exempt

Some diffusers use solid scent block things and no water. Aside from that I guess it’s mostly a matter of scale.

Oh. You said it was a very different thing
