Reddit demands moderators remove NSFW labels, or else
Reddit decides if a community is NSFW — not the moderators.
You're viewing a single thread.
Even if reddit reverse all their decisions from last 3 months I'll still not go back to it.
Yeah. I mean why would someone? This place is growing leaps and bounds.
It's really impressive how Lemmy/kbin have totally replaced reddit for me pretty painlessly. Any time Ive checked reddit out of FOMO, the content is far worse, and the comments are horrid.
I am dealing with involuntary muscle memory. It’s one thing to remove Apollo, it’s another to fire up Edge and resist the unconscious typing of Reddit.com right away.
Leaving Reddit for other communities sparked an interest in trying other things like (new to me) search engines and web browsers. Having those new icons on my home screen forces me to click in different places and form new muscle memory. Maybe you can reorganize all of your apps on your screen/desktop or use a new web browser to force a little pause before you start typing.
Lol damn. Yeah it's harder on desktop.
If you want to be fun you could do a little hosts file editing and have it take you to Lemmy when directly typing "reddit.com".
Or to pornhub.com. Accidentally bringing that up at work a few times should do the trick.
I only opened reddit on desktop when I was writing a longer post and couldn't be arsed to do it with the mobile keyboard. As soon as RIF was gone, I quit.
The Memmy client on iOS convinced me, essentially same Apollo experience with a nicer and more informed community. Seems like everyone who actually participated on Reddit is moving here
It's still missing a lot of the more niche communities. Most of the game communities I frequent are still almost entirely on Reddit
Videogame subreddits are the only reason I use Reddit now especially Indiegames and patientgamers, so I used the ReVanced Patcher to patch RiF, so I don't have to use their shitty app.
There are patientgamer communities on the Threadiverse now, of which the most-active seems to me to be the one on sh.itjust.works.
I've been looking into that myself, but also would like to cut Reddit off completely since it's dedicated to enshittification now. I also have no faith that the workaround will keep working as long as spez is an asshole
I still skip over to Reddit occasionally to check out some of the more niche ones out. But some of them have either really turned bad since they came back from protesting or weren't that great in the first place and I didn't realise.
For instance I used to go on r/AndroidGaming a lot to find decent games for my tablet. But it's a really repetitive sub with virtually the same questions, same answers, same plugs for shitty games every day.
I've watched this place explode since Monday, this is just the beginning
Man I hope so, Lemmy is doing better than Mastodon since you need a much smaller critical mass of users to make the place usable but I'm still waiting on several communities before I can actually cut off Reddit completely (though losing 3rd party apps has massively reduced time spent there)
I alternate between Memmy and the web client. Memmy is excellent but the web client is remarkably good on its own. And I agree, the people posting content seem to have moved.
I just deleted my Reddit account today. Don't plan on ever going back, especially given how well Lemmy's community has grown.
It wouldnt change anything, anyway. Theyd change it all back as soon as they got closer to the IPO
