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”.
Good pointer, thanks!
How about shutting the fuck up, minding your own business, and letting people do whatever the fuck they want?
Oh my god, I JUST realized this scene is from Twilight…
Ohhhhhh. I always assumed it was some underworld sequel, which in retrospect wouldn’t have really made sense.
… oh my god
Oh my God, you’re right!
I always think it’s some random scene in Always Sunny.
But after drunkenly watching Twilight for laughs, I only just noticed

It turned you into a fruity vampire?
I feel sparkley when I’m here
Wish they’d stop holding these meetings in the middle of an open field in broad daylight.
Is that dude in the back playing air guitar?
It’s The Doctor is disguise.
He’s waiting for Timkins to come take his pulse
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.
What app is that?
Relay for Reddit
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.
How i feel having reddit in the DNS blacklist…
But how do you find answers to obscure questions?
Try posting those questions on Lemmy so we can build up our own answers. I’m subscribed to a lot of communities that seem full of people ready to help, but no one that needs help.
I can’t even find out the best way for shop for something without getting dozens of list articles by sponsors, it’s a bummer
I read the fucking manual of the stuff i Work with.
My problem with RTFM is that sometimes the manual assumes I have any level of competence at all, when I really super don’t
I spent three hours trying to install a LOD mod for Minecraft last week. As soon as it said something about Gradle I should have thrown in the towel…
Relatable
Well, if the manual doesn’t help me i ask a college, if he can’t help we call our retired college, this guy was there when it was written and when THAT doesn’t work we kinda just play around until it works.
Just quit using Reddit today. Feelsgoodman
That feeling but also the AA feeling of being of the edge of falling back into it at any moment.
Ok but imagine breaking and buying a bottle of vodka, only to swig it and realise it’s pond water.

How I party not having browsed Reddit for three months:
Vecna, Aziraphale, and The Swede
Didn’t Arnold say something about “Cumin all the time”, pretty much.
Regal AF.
