Ever since I quit reddit I have become irrestable to the opposite sex. I’ve gotten so many bitches.
Congratulations!
The same sex too uwu
I didn’t, but my mind likes me now.
Touché
Besides the amount of content (and the occasional server issues) on Lemmy I haven’t missed anything about Reddit after switching.
that content keeps me coming back as an unregistered lurker and for much longer than all of the fediverse instances combined.
Great username.
I’m foreign, could you explain?
His username is from a character on star trek.
Quality time.
Reddit has been no stranger to server issues, remember. Honestly lemmy.ca has been more reliable than reddit…
For me, the only feeling better than dumping Reddit a month or so ago has been when I ditched Facebook years ago.
leaving facebook was easier
Well with Facebook for me it was more like a slow decline until I only used it for things I “have” to use it for. Whereas Reddit was a brutal, one day to the next cold turkey kind of thing.
The only thing I miss about FB was the Birthday reminders.
For anyone I care about, I set a yearly reminder on my phone. Works a treat!
Same here. Just dropped it, no questions. Went back to clear out any comments and useful saves … realized I didn’t miss it all
I ditched Facebook in 2017, the same time I got a Reddit account. Now I got Lemmy when I left Reddit.
I dumped FB after George Floyd. The stupidity of some people was just too much. I had Reddit but there is something to anonymity. I think I pay more attention to the content of the comments. I dunno. Maybe it’s me.
Ever since I stopped using Reddit, my wife has been spending more time with me than her boyfriend

Are you on linux yet?
Arch and vegan btw, get on my level.

based comment
… and a communist ?
Have you switched to Firefox for privacy? Sold your gas guzzler and started biking so you aren’t climate changing? Canceled Netflix, Facebook, Google, and Xed Twitter so you aren’t ripped off? Installed bidets so you aren’t killing trees to wipe your shit?
I’m unimpressed.
Still love my car, but public transit for commute is the way. Die the rest, actually yeah, apart from the bidet. I saw that on Reddit all the time too, maybe it really is such a life changer. Did you know they are really cheap and can be bought as add-ons to your existing toilet?
reddit was the only thing keeping OP anchored in the fashion trends of this millennium
OP has ascended
Like Fry after eating that egg sandwich.
You’re not going to eat a sandwich from a truck stop men’s room, are you?
I am glad people are ditching reddit too but we don’t need to jerk ourselves off about it
Bro don’t ruin the vibe, I’ll go soft
okay that is actually pretty funny
Speak for yourself. If you don’t want in on the circle jerk you can leave
Stop ruining the vibe of our jerk
Not need, want.
yes therefore me saying it is not “need” is grammatically correct
Time to tar and feather reddit!
One real effect of leaving Reddit is I spend so much less time on my phone. I love that. Part of it is because my favorite communities haven’t come over to Lemmy, which I don’t love.
Reading Lemmy is like a newspaper. After 20-30 min you are kind of finished with the days posts.
That’s a nice thing for me so far. Instead of endless hours wasted, it’s a little peek here and there. See some news, enjoy some memes, and move on.
Lol I still check it on PC sometimes but Lemmy has completely replaced it on mobile for me.
Same. I still have pangs of grief over doomscrolling reddit (via Boost, RIP) and getting lost in nonsense like best of redditor updates.
That said, I spend WAY less time on my phone now, which is definitely a healthy thing
Same here. I just hope more people will eventually come to create and take part in communities
I went back to comment on a few posts a week ago before remembering how hostile a lot of the community and moderators are
May last 20 comments:
FCK
SPZ
It feels good. The atmosphere is so much better here, even if the content is slower.
I wasn’t a poster on reddit, but I’m motivated to contribute to the posts here, especially to niche communities I enjoy when I find them.

Image Transcription:
A scene from The Twilight Saga: New Moon showing three vampires, Caius, Aro, and Marcus, in gold-brown Rococo era garb looking judgmentally down their noses at the viewer. Above the image is the caption: What I look like, because I haven’t been browsing Reddit for over a month.
[I am a human, if I’ve made a mistake please let me know. Please consider providing alt-text for ease of use. Thank you. 💜]
What the hell, this pic is from twilight? Cant speak for the rest of the movies but this pic goes hard. Might singlehandedly convince me to watch the movies, just to see the context of this image, if not for anything else.
The books have a few very interesting ideas, like the leader vampire society that feasts on whole tourist groups. Or a vampire during the civil war. Unfortunately, it’s mostly fluff and never expanded upon.
Those guys are like the leaders of the vampires. They live in Brazil and make the rules and and they punish any one who breaks them
They can’t be Brazilian. There are no soccer shirts, flares and big breasted carnivale women.
Good human.
Btw, I was a member of r/transcribers. Is there a big enough community in here already?
I’m not aware of an official community, but you’re welcome to transcribe images you come across if they haven’t already been done. It seems more common for people to transcribe their own images here on Lemmy, which is nice.
Landed gentry rejoice
My pleasure.
