Same.. Stumbleupon -> Digg -> Reddit -> Lemmy
I don't recall why I went away from SU but both the others were as a protest
Weirdly enough for me: Digg -> Imgur -> Reddit -> Lemmy.
Imgur added user accounts just prior to Digg v4 going live.
Imgur having a community in itself always feels so funny to me. Like a group of forgotten humans feeding off the scraps of the rest of society that don't even know they exist.
I switched to Reddit when I realized I was basically one of those Futurama sewer mutants.
For me it just became cumbersome stumbling over and over, finding useful or novel sites less and less often
