I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it’s because I am limited to using the desktop and can’t aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself aimlessly browsing through r/AskReddit and asking and answering pointless questions.
I just got on Lemmy today so that I’ve been using it a ton to find communities and reddit not at all. I do miss the history and size of reddit. Although on reddit I mostly lurked. Since this is smaller and newer and not corporate I’m going to try and be a more active user.
I deleted my 16 yr old reddit account along with all comments and posts. No turning back now!
To think your Reddit account was older than most kids at my school…
