for the Reddit refugees, do you also feel a bit heartbroken? (lemmy.world)

For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.

I think what breaks my heart even more than the whole mess about 3rd party apps is that people are not going to care in a couple weeks, and just revert to reddit. Everyone just wants to go back to how things were.

There's gonna be a bunch of abandoned accounts here.

I hope I'm wrong.

The thing is... 'the way things were' meant Reddit on good mobile apps without ads, spam and tracking.

I don't want to learn all about a new UI, but I'd have to do that to continue to use Reddit.
