Question to the ones that fully left Reddit

3 years ago by InfiniteGlitch to c/reddit

How has it been for you? Do you get FOMO feeling sometimes?

I use Reddit less and less but haven’t fully quit yet. Always have this odd feeling of FOMO regards content.

Not only that, some subreddits haven’t migrated to any other platform unfortunately. Or they have but the content is very little compared to Reddits content.

Note - wasn’t sure where to post this. So if this wasn’t the right place, apologies!

The issue I have with Reddit - it’s full of hateful people and most content is just bots karma farming.

EDIT: Thanks for all the responses!

EDIT 2: Thanks for the ones that mentioned RSS-Feed. Just got it and it’s amazing. Still manage to only follow the subreddits that I like without crapads.

I do miss the discussions... Lemmy is great but it's not what Reddit was.

Reddit is also no longer what reddit was.

Agreed, I left back in June after the API change.

The discussions were what really made Reddit, to me. I could see an article or piece of information anywhere, but Reddit often had decent commentary that helped add context and perspective.

Wasn't perfect, of course, but in general it felt like it really added to the experience.

I still look up recommendations on there since it's so useful.
