I was active on Reddit for well over a decade. Even helped mod a couple of small communities at various points. I also loved Apollo and was an early beta tester for that app. For me, Apollo was Reddit. It was the only Reddit client I used in recent years and I miss Apollo as much as I miss Reddit itself.
I don’t see myself going back to Reddit. Lemmy has been great and has quickly become very “Reddit-like” for me, but with the vibe of what the internet was back in the early 2000s. I am enjoying the communities that are forming on her.
I’m also very fond of the concept of the Fediverse as a whole. Corporate social media has failed again and again, so I want to move away from it as much as possible.

I have an 11 year Reddit account, and recently got banned for posting about how Nazi’s shouldn’t be around anymore.
Reddit has been slowly turning to shit, and Spez befriending Musk is a pretty big indicator that its going to keep going that way.
