For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.

    Nah

    Lemmy feels similar enough

    I experienced Reddit taking over BBs, Facebook taking over MySpace, the death of Netlog…so much change and I’m too young to have experienced BBS and Usenet in their prime even

    It always expected reddit going to shit at some point. Commercial platform without open standards = pain once management makes poor strategic decisions

      I only used Reddit because of the people. I’ve only been on here for a couple hours but Lemmy might be able to replace that

        I was getting pretty sick of the people on Reddit personally. People in popular threads were straight up aggressive and it had a huge misinformation problem. If you asked for a source you’d get downvoted to shit and people would tell you to “google it bro”. So far I’m finding the culture here more like early Reddit.
