I deleted my account before RIF died, as the writing was on the wall. I check Reddit accountless if there is a big news story, but tend to avoid it otherwise.
Honestly I miss (the old) reddit sometimes, but Lemmy has been really enjoyable. My reddit account was getting old anyways, I’d already seen all the content that was reposted every year or so and was just getting annoyed. I absolutely do not miss the aggression of every reddit thread, I feel like we are generally all on the same team here.
I guess that is kind of the downside of Lemmy too - if you’re not a very specific type of person, it probably won’t appeal to you. And I guess that can sort of result in an echo chamber, although it seems instead of arguing about the left and the right, we argue about the far left and the farther left.
Same, cant believe it was 2 years ago. I was really bummed when it happened.i had been on reddit for almost 15 years at that point.
Fucking same.
I deleted my main account once they first came out with the reddit recap, and deleted my replacement when they fucked RIF, never to return.
I still lurk without an account sometimes, but that’s all they’ll ever get out of me.
Stealth is a nice app for lurking reddit, feature-rich open source and accountless.
Or rdx for iPhone users. I use this app daily it’s amazing :) https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/rdx-for-reddit/id6503479190
Til, thanks
Oh wow! Never knew this existed!

Its true, I occasionally get accused of being a neoliberal, which is an insult to me. :P
