I left Twitter for Mastodon, and not only did I find that it met my needs, I found a lot of other stuff making it worth being far more involved with than I ever was with Twitter. (Twitter for me was about emergency comms and weather, not social interaction.) And now Reddit is being musked...I have no issue losng Reddit even without an analog, but it's fast becoming obvious that the Fediverse is where that content and community really should have been all along. I'm already spending more time with accounts on Lemmy and Kbin than I ever did at Reddit.
It's not a replacement. It's not meant to be a replacement. It's what we really should have been doing all along.
