It’s like reddit has a fundamental misunderstanding of what some of their core userbase was there for. We weren’t there to meet people and make connections and lifelong friends. We were there because our brains want constant input but for information and learning, not entertainment. We can have these same discussions with anyone anywhere. It’s not that we’re antisocial, it’s just that “social” for us is interacting in a different way than interactions done for the sake of forming connections, which is what reddit seems to be really pushing people to do. We can have those same discussions with anyone, anywhere.
I don’t know if that makes sense. 😂
Anyway, I’m using wefwef now and as a hardcore Apollo user, it feels like putting on a new pair of the same favorite shoes. It feels a little different, but once they’re broken in they feel just like the old ones.
I realized I interacted / posted / commented less and less on reddit these last couple of years. Couldn't even tell you why exactly. Now I've been here for a week and, I don't know, I just like interacting again... Hope it stays like this for a while :)
Boost confirms switching to being a fediverse app after the Reddit app shutdown. (www.reddit.com)
Right now it's going to be for Lemmy, but the fediverse is still getting a fantastic app.
It feels a lot nicer here on lemmy / kbin
