    Made an account on Lemmy 3h ago, best thing I’ve done to counter the need to constantly check Reddit :)

      I have both Lemmy and I kbin since the blackouts. I still check reddit on occasion for some major news or subs I visited, but it’s probably only 10% of what I used to.

        Same.

        My goal is to make the full switch here eventually, but it takes time to find all the correct communities that can fully replace what is on Reddit.

        To be honest, Reddit was always one of those semi-addiction sites for me, where I would just go to waste time. I’d like to reduce that overall, so I’m going to focus more on contributing to specific communities.

      Yeah, I don’t really understand what this all is, but after pressing through a few failed attempts to sign up and finding a compatible app, I figure if nothing else, it’ll give me something to read after next week.

        The first steps were the hardest, I agree. Now I find it so odd that there are no ads at all😂
