    All it takes is people going elsewhere and they are worth nothing. Reddit isn’t like Twitter, where it’s all about you. I came here, have the same conversations, and haven’t even noticed I’m not on Reddit any longer.

      I used to be pretty big into Reddit. I haven’t been back in almost a year except a couple of google search results. I do notice a difference though. There is less diversity in expressed thoughts here. I don’t miss the doomscrolling though, I can run out of new content here and I like that.

        Also because there is less content its more meaningful. There’s a lot of fluff and garbage on Reddit just so people can get karma.

      I used a great apk on reddit before reddit fucked it over with the api call fiasco. That’s when I moved to lemmy and found an apk called Thunder that is extremely similar. So right now the only real difference for me is the much lower user base, so there’s less “niche” subs/instances. Of course, that will also go away so long as people keep migrating over.
