Reddit API fee protests push into third week - Lemmy.world

I've been pleasantly surprised by the number of people who are continuing to stick with it + be supportive. I didn't expect anything beyond the planned end of the blackout, although I didn't expect thousands of subreddits to participate in that either. Either way I've basically cut Reddit out entirely. I used to scroll 2-3hrs a day and I'm down to maybe 10 minutes once or twice a week when I'm trying to find an answer to something. Attempting to fill my newfound free time has really been something
That’s what I’ve been doing here instead, lol.
It's annoying that so much of my search results rely on community discussions from reddit. I've pretty much ditched the site entirely and am getting pretty comfy here, but a lot of historical discussions on reddit simply can't be replaced and likely never will be.
Well, no offense, but I don't want both of my arms broken to begin with, let alone what comes after!
Weirdly enough it got me more engaged with social media. In the sense that now I'm posting and talking with people on lemmy and mastodon more than I ever did on reddit. Weird how a place can get so popular it stops being a real community after a while
I don't know that it has me engaging more but it feels more fun and meaningful now. Reddit had turned into man yells into the void for me. Now I feel like I'm talking to real people again on Lemmy. It's such a relief honestly.
It helps not opening a post to find 10k plus comments and the top comment with 4k upvotes.
same here. still need to learn my way around, but overall it's very promising. I've not checked Reddit since the beginning of the blackout, however i might do it for some very niche subs. hopefully I'll find alternatives.
Do you mean you're masturbating more or you took up painting?
Or painting themselves masturbating?
My god. And all thanks to daddy's little cumslut, Spez. Go figure.
