Like Gotye and Kimbra sang: Reddit is “someone that I used to know”! Browsing Lemmy, with some subscribed Kbin magazines, fills that need and I haven’t thought about going and checking out Reddit at all. The one subreddit I still do miss is r/BORU - the (probably fake) stories with updates was great reading! Thanks Lemmy (and Kbin).
I still check on Reddit to look things up in some niche communities that didn’t move over. Reddit’s sheer size is not to be underestimate as a value. That said, other than that, the browsing feeling is great.
I hope Reddit continues it’s trajectory of fucking up and more people will fill the niche places in the fediverse.
Yeah, the main reason I keep lurking there is because it’s just a great way to keep up with things. For example, during the last few years I’d never miss out on any important tennis matches or One Piece chapter releases thanks to their subreddits. For more general news the fediverse has been good enough.
