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 return for some very specific subreddits, but each day less and less.

Yeah I'm the same. I figure reddit is never gonna die, just like how Facebook is still around. It will have it's uses but I don't plan to be on it very often.

I do the same for a few specific subreddits that just aren't as active on Lemmy yet. Also less frequently as time goes on.

The problem is if there are only 10 people 7 of them only lurking, on Reddit, this is what happeneds if you do that on Lemmy:

Every beginning is hard.
