If it was like OceanGate’s collapse, it would have happened all at once extremely fast.
I actually haven’t. I went there for a bit to see if boost was getting a lemmy app (it is).
My time on Reddit died simultaneously with Apollo. I’m doing what I can by not giving that place anymore traffic from me.
Found out about Lemmy yesterday. While it’s not there with niche interests at this point, it definitely cures the itch.
You want to stick it to the man? Quit going there altogether people!
I only joined Lemmy yesterday and I plan on using both for now but this site and app are already a so much better experience without ads and everything loads lightning fast. And then I open reddit and I have to look at the spinning circle everytime I click on something. For some reason, it’s even worse on desktop. That shit feels so unresponsive.
Good thing you didn’t join 10 days ago then, you would have uninstalled instantly 😀
The difference is that this is an open source community driven effort. Reddit is a for profit business. On that basis, I give Lemmy a lot more leeway when it comes to bugs. Reddit just turned into a slog over the last few years BECAUSE they try to monetize it to death.
