Totally not suspicious timing at all.

Also if you’re willing to visit reddit, the comments under the post are great. They’re not fooling anyone.

    I’m personally not willing to visit Reddit unless I need to cause it has technical answers, deleted the app and haven’t been on since the protests were announced.

    Honestly Lemmy is pretty fucking awesome I love it here, I’m gonna stay here until the community dies or I do.

        I gained atleast an hour every day after leaving Reddit. I Read lots of ebooks again and enjoying my time on lemmy.

            No, they’re me. I still spend a lot of time on the fediverse, but I find I can stop before 3am more readily, and I’ve been reading ebooks a lot more. Overall life is significantly better. The quality of discourse on lemmy is so much higher than on reddit. And I can log out and meaninglessly scroll memes for a while if I feel like it too.

              And whether people like you or not, you get a conversation no matter what you say. It’s not so overpopulated that most of your comments and posts go completely unnoticed.

              I made a dumb joke that was practically only downvoted, but at least it was seen.

              I miss Reddit for a few little things here and there, but I’m glad I migrated.

        I still accidentally type it into web browser from time to time but it’s usually only a few secs before I realize my error

        I did the same thing! It was pretty astonishing how many times I tried to go back there.

      If we could get some of the awesome subs like askhistorians and the like to bring their content over, Lemmy could become home to many more users. The sad fact is Reddit is still a treasure trove of niche information

      I recently built a PC for the very first time and am very ashamed to admit I had to visit old threads to help me get up and running. It’s such a tragedy what they’ve done to the site, its communities had and still have so much value. Heartbreaking that they’re so determined to run it into the ground and personally nail its own coffin shut.
