Anyone else still kinda miss Reddit?

Maybe I just miss Reddit is Fun, not Reddit, but I still have RiF installed (I just can't delete it) and it still "works". I can't sign in or participate, but fuck I miss browsing everything. I've definitely replaced it with Kbin, but opening the RiF app just gives me sadness. Fuck spez. #AskKbin

I don’t miss it because I keep using it. The communities I follow there are niche and they are completely dead on the Fediverse. I keep opening Kbin every other day just to find that my "new" feed still shows posts from 2 weeks ago without even scrolling.

Also, most of what I dislike from Reddit is still here.

Tons of people on the Fediverse craft their responses to fish upvotes, and circlejerking/echo-chambers are here too. Just last week I got a fresh breeze of downvotes and angry commenters because I expressed that I dislike Steam, on the PCgaming magazine, which is the same thing that would’ve happened on r/gaming, r/pcmasterrace or another similar toxic cesspool on Reddit.

This, I'm trying to be the change I want to see etc. on Kbin. But in order to fully recreate what I have on Reddit I'd have to recreate, moderate, and cough up content for like a dozen niche subs. Because of how my life is right now I don't have the energy to do one. I haven't noticed much of the toxicity, but any online space that revolves around gaming seems to turn into a toilet within a matter of days anyway, so it's sadly unsurprising.

This is the truth. There was a nice sub on Reddit about Android gaming which was pretty non-toxic but generally speaking gaming brings out the worst in people. And I still don't know why
