    And yet, after three months you still think about it.

    I do look on Reddit sometimes, there are niche communities that don’t exist in that form in the fediverse and it would be quite hard to just ignore the existence of that site, especially when wanting to look up certain information. I did successfully stop participating though.

      Having used it for over 12 years, sure I think about it occasionally; usually when I remember how glad I am that I no longer use it.

    Never use “how” and “like” in the same sentence that way. Use “What it feels like” or “How it feels”.

        They’re technically also doing whatever the fuck they want and you’re the one being a hypocrite now. Take your own advice, disgusting POS.

          Are you one of those people who can’t follow context clues and use rudimentary primary school reasoning to come up with the actual meaning of a sentence without the sentence being inundated with discussing all the tidbits, nuances, and subtleties that make the sentence able to be understood by a poorly designed AI? You’re a really, really stupid person.

            What part of what I said needs context clues, jerkface. Reach harder 'cause you got nothing. Are you so angry at the world that you think anyone who calls you out on your bullshit is stupid for letting you have it? Is that how that works? You’re raging at someone who did nothing wrong, angry little man. People iike you make the internet worse. You’re part of the problem, dickhead.

    For me, the early days of my time on Lemmy highlighted what I’d been missing from Reddit: quality discussions light on dog-piling, circle jerking, and holier-than-thou partisan clique bullshit.

    These have all come to Lemmy in force with the migration, so now I’m plenty happy on either platform with a “block early, block often” strategy. It ends up just as low-stress.

      Yes yes and yes! I feel the same. Memes and normal conversations, without having someone to post a reference from a movie or series or even type their life time experience.

    I got to say I’m weak and still go there 50% of the time. But my app is still working charge free so that I can still avoid deleting it. I think shifting participation to Lemmy is the long run goal. I’m on my way.

      I’m not up to 50% (maybe my app being toast is part of that) but I do still visit more than I’d like. I’ve pretty much accepted at this point that it’s the only place for certain niche discussion. I went cold turkey on participation, though. I can’t help Reddit die if I’m still putting content on it (and I have full ad-blocking and domain-level JS blocking to keep ads away).

        Same. I find some answers helpful but I will not touch the UI. I have a feeling they’ll start doing some manipulative shit trying to get people to participate.

    That feeling but also the AA feeling of being of the edge of falling back into it at any moment.

    Been the until Infiniti worked. To be honest, Lemmy isn’t that comfy and I don’t really see what is interested in…

    Stuffy and pompous, makes sense

    I feel like shit not having used reddit for 3 months. I want a forum for each anime I watch that isn’t MAL…
