Exactly what the title says. I used to look at Reddit and spend 2+ hours minimum every single day, more on the weekends. Once the API changes were announced and the protest date hit, I decided I would stop using it regardless of what happened moving forward.
I made a lemmy account and I do enjoy posting and reading occasionally, but I don't sink nearly as much time into it as I did with Reddit. After the first couple days where I really had to fight not to look at Reddit (guess it was addictive for me), I started doing other things in my free time to alleviate my boredom. I have read two books, and am starting on another book tomorrow. I have started work on personal projects I put on the back burner and have been making some genuine progress.
I was never a mod, but I feel kind of pathetic admitting this because it's such a meme that Reddit mods/admins haven't seen the sunlight for years. Guess my life was also passing me more than I realized. I don't really have a moral/point here because I know not everyone has as much of an addictive personality as I do, guess I just felt like sharing.
Must have forgot to write it down
