I never liked Reddit. I used to only use it for an hour or less a day to follow tech and IT communities.

But now, after the blackout, I can’t leave Lemmy. I’m on it about 5-6 hours a day to find communities, read news about Reddit blackout and Lemmy’s future. I think going back to Reddit will be good for me. It will take less of my time, especially after a lot of people quit Reddit.


Edit: Thank you for your nice answers and advice. I think all the good people of Reddit are here at Lemmy and kbin.

    I mean I’m not gonna tell you what you can or cannot do, but if you wanna support the protests, you should use an ad blocker when using reddit, that way they can’t get ad revenue.

    If social media addiction is the problem, you might wanna go outside.

      Is that also the case with third party apps like Apollo? I mean, at least until the 30th.

      For the record, the last time I closed the Apollo app was on Sunday night, and haven’t gone back since, so I’m asking on behalf of others who might feel the temptation to go there again.
