I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it’s because I am limited to using the desktop and can’t aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself aimlessly browsing through r/AskReddit and asking and answering pointless questions.
Me!
I’m still exploring here, but it’s already an improvement. Lots less drivel and bots, and none of the icky feeling I get when I’m at Steve Huffman’s place. I’ve eliminated 95% of my casual surfing from Reddit, leaving nothing but a few essential subReddits with info unavailable elsewhere. And I’m done participating there.
