I used to check the front page at least once every day, and occassionally check specific subreddits. Now I don't look at reddit unless theres some drama, like mods getting purged, then I'd go there and enjoy the drama. Occasionally there will be questions that only reddit has the answer to so I have to reluctantly use it. I got my uBlock Origin ready to kill all the ads. That shitty website will not get a cent out of me.

What about you? Do you still use reddit?

I do, but not nearly as much as Lemmy.

I used to go to reddit for everything. To scroll aimlessly, just to look at aesthetic photos, to read stories...I even had a multi reddit for text based subs, and a third party app on my watch so I could read text based reddit posts at work.

Now, I only go to reddit if i need the resources of a specific sub (earlier i had a question about an app so i went to their sub to browse and see if there was any advice) or if i'm cross posting content to lemmy to get my communities going.

when i just want to scroll and see what's new, ive been coming straight to lemmy every time.

i'm really trying to interact more too.
