Just realized that the other day.
I had initially intended to feel it out and honor the blackout from 12-14, then figured, “I’m here now, might as well ride out the month if Reddit isn’t responding in any meaningful way to the community’s requests” and now I think I’ll just be in the fedi apps for the foreseeable future.
It’s different here, but it hasn’t been a struggle and it gets better and better with time. Feels nice to not support inhumane and user-hostile endless corporate greed.
Ouch. We wish we could say we had the same experience. Apparently, doomscrolling was part of what was keeping us afloat. Once we dropped that, we sunk much deeper into our depression. We’re glad that you had a better experience though.
