Its been one day without Reddit - eviltoast

& I’m doing pretty good! The wefwef app has done a great job of recreating the Apollo experience and has made it a lot easier to not want to go and download the Reddit app. The more active it gets here, the easier it’ll be. How are you guys doing so far? Have you found an App for Lemmy that you prefer the most yet?

    15 year club on reddit. I’ve parted a few weeks ago and not coming back.

    I hope lemmy gets good and better content.

      14 year club. Also not going back to mobile browsing Reddit. I was a baconreader user for more than a decade. RES and old.reddit seems unaffected so far but Connect for Lemmy is working well. Happy to see some traction here.

        Wiped my 13 year account a few days ago and haven’t gone back to Reddit since RIF died. I’m mostly just waiting for one of the apps (Sync or Boost for Lemmy) to come out to do a full replacement; for now I’m just mobile browsing here.

      11 years. End of an era. I have to force myself to not muscle memory go to reddit every morning when I open up my laptop in bed (I was almost purely a PC based, old.reddit.com user). It’s weird. I kinda figured my outlook or general mental space would feel…different, without using that addictive website that I’ve literally spent several hours on every single day for literally years, but I don’t. I just seem to be watching more youtube videos. I guess it’s true that your brain finds a way of filling the hole with stimulation. Not sure if that’s a good thing, though. Kinda wish my brain would be like “okay, time to read all those books you bought and then said you’d get to later. Later is now, asshole.” Nope, just twitch streamer highlight reels and videos of anime girls dancing. Maybe I’m just a fucking idiot, after all.
