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.
My reddit usage has dropped steadily over the past week, starting with ~50% on day 1 and now almost 90%.
There’s a few things I read on reddit, mostly related to its downfall (Apollo apps post yesterday), but otherwise it’s this or doing something entirely different.
I’m the same.
Steadily dropping reddit use.
I hope (and am pretty sure) that this is a common sentiment. The drama in the past few weeks have really felt like a watershed moment for reddit’s fade into obscurity.
