I still check a local subreddit occasionally. Lemmy, unfortunately, doesn't have the userbase to support localized communities and going to the local subreddit is still better than going to local Facebook groups.

I'll also occasionally check the LEGO subreddit to see new builds. There's a LEGO Lemmy community, but it doesn't have as many people in it as the subreddit.

I haven't actually posted since the API Crisis hit, though. I just had to go in with the official app since Boost was finally cut off and it was even worse than I remembered. I'll still stop by Reddit every so often, but it'll be a "once or twice a week" visitation instead of "multiple times every day."
