I’ve been on Reddit for 10 years and now I use Reddit very rarely (only when I feel like a community on Reddit is the only place for me to get info about a specific thing). Now I frequent Lemmy (and Kbin) instead for news, discussions and memes.
Stremio has been useless until I got fiber internet. Now it’s my preferred way to watch stuff.
I’m only going there to help out fellow bronies (the MLP sub is going strong with their pixelart, but they did lock new posts until r/Place is over), and to see the protest art.
Used Mastodon for a bit a few years ago, but it wasn’t popular enough so I didn’t get much out of it at the time. Now, I basically prefer Mastodon and Calckey to Twitter, unless I want to see what my Twitter mutuals are doing, most of which are artists.
I pretty much replaced Reddit with Lemmy, and might even delete my Reddit account at some point. I think I’m not visiting this website often enough, but that’s because it’s not as tantalizing as Reddit, especially on web. But I do want to visit this place more often. I don’t want to miss out on what’s happening.
Second that. Wefwef is the best PWA-type web app in the world in my opinion. It’s convenient, easy to learn, and it looks really nice and modern. Plus, it’s incredibly stable.
Yep! It feels like I’m in a place I shouldn’t be in and that I’m betraying the community simply by being there
Exactly. Been using this website for now as a replacement for Reddit, and not really using Mastodon much. On Mastodon you have to refollow a bunch of people, Twitter still works for me as a microblogging platform, despite being owned by someone I do not respect in any way.
Microblogs are a very cool feature, but it’s a shame that it is one button on the top of the page that looks similar to the other buttons that you’d mostly ignore it if you weren’t actively looking for it
I personally would prefer to keep my comments and posts and just delete the account. That way others don’t have to go to cached and archived versions of pages if a subreddit isn’t privated to see the full context of a comment, and it’s just better for overall preservation.
IMO, Reddit kept the people who didn’t care about third party apps or the things that made Reddit Reddit years ago, before it turned into generic social media. Everyone who did care, left. And that’s not really a victory.
