This is honestly probably for the best. It’s a really bad idea that we’ve let reddit monopolize niche knowledge

      Since Relay is still working right now I check back once or twice a day.

      After being on Kbin for the last couple weeks, it’s amazing to me how shitty and toxic Reddit feels in comparison now. I’m basically only going there to check a couple niche subs, then bounce.

      I’m also only commenting to suggest people check out Lemmy/Kbin, haha.

        And therefore I presume getting down-voted. It’s not enough that you are offering a helpful alternative, they want to not only be happy miserable in their chosen place, but for all other places to not be allowed to exist either. :-(

          Maybe it’s because I ejected the default subs out of my list a long time ago, but I haven’t gotten downvotes for it at all

            r/RedditAlternatives was definitely filling up with quite the drama, but I’m glad that you managed to avoid it!:-)

      Welcome to the club! I left reddit with the first blackout and haven’t used it since. It’s been easier than I rhought so I don’t plan on ever returning.
