I was on Reddit every day for 14+ years. July 1st I came to Lemmy and never looked back.
Same. Longest I'd gone without commenting on reddit for a decade straight is 3 days. Now the longest is...since July 1st and counting.
I said I would leave my just-turned 15-year-old account after June 30th, received a lot of fomo jibe, and have only been back when I've needed to update the social links of my profile with new Fediverse replacement accounts.
Good riddance.
I miss the toxicity. I miss the inside jokes... I miss shitty watercolours. I miss the gore. I miss the profound comments. I miss the extremely detailed and informative answers to the most rudiment question.
Here is just: capitalism bad / Landlords suck / Linux / Chromium sux / Atheism
Don't get me wrong, I love these topics, but it's just that...
I found another website where I make my daily blog, but now I'm wasting even more time online....
You're in a meme community that's hosted on an instance started by Marxist-leninists. Of course you're going to see a lot of that. Have you tried to search for communities on other instances? I'm on Kbin, and this is one of many fediverse-wide communities I'm subscribed to from there. I don't get the constant politics and circlejerking on some other instances.
Oh, that explains a lot!
you… miss the toxicity…
Yeah. I miss people arguing over unimportant stuff, like their life depends on it. I miss communities coming together to mass downvote companies like EA. And I miss letting out anger, knowing that the other user does the same.
...when does the narwal bacon.... They were the good times. Oh well.
