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’m constantly making a conscious effort to avoid going back to reddit. It’s not been easy, as it was my most used app maybe after youtube, but I’ve succeed so far. Last december I deleted my twitter account I created back in 2009. It hurt a bit, but I survived and found a nice place on a Mastodon instance. My reddit account is 11 years old, and I’ll be deleting it too, soon. It’ll hurt too, I know, but I’ll survive too. Lemmy is my new home.
