I wish there was an alternative to leaving Reddit

    I also feel sad about leaving Reddit. It’s been a constant in my routine for almost a decade. If I needed anything - opinions, suggestions, advice - about literally anything I’d immediately head to Reddit. It’s bittersweet having to leave, but I know deep in my heart there was no other way especially with how it was going and how it was treating its users. But honestly seeing a new, fresh feed actually felt… nice. I don’t see much negativity. I actually see people replying to each other mostly decently. There’s not a lot of trolling or passive aggressiveness. I feel hopeful that this will be the start of seeing healthier communities and more positive interactions. In any case, if you’re here anyway, you’re a part of the group of people who don’t think what’s happening on the other side is acceptable, so it’s already a pretty great filter if you think about it.
