    I don’t understand. Maybe it’s my adhd and lack of object permanence, but I have been so unbothered by the lack of Reddit.

    I bought a plant today. I’ve never bought a plant. I bought cats before buying a houseplant. I’m pretty stoked—and it’s mostly because I was scrolling through Reddit that I got up to do it.

      I signed up to Lemmy like 4 months ago and dropped off due to a lack of users. I’m enjoying it a lot more now with all the reddugees around.

        I’ve also found that, for the most part, the type of people that left Reddit have been a lot more pleasant to interact with. I don’t hate it at all. There’re still a few subs I really miss, but so far Lemmy has been doing a pretty good job of filling the role of time sink.

      Honestly reddit quality has degraded greatly in the last few years. I blame it on commercial propaganda (half of the posts are shilling something or karma farming) and original content being punished by auto moderator.

      Just in case it comes up, bitter apple spray works great if said cats decide to chew on your new plant.

      I’m about a half inch from dropping Lemmy here too.

      Pick up aviation in the time I’d save.

      But. I feel like I’ll just pick Reddit up again to fill voids
