Day 4 Reddit-free for me (I deleted all my accounts - one of which was 14+ years old - after the AMA ... jfc what a catastrophe!) Exploring the Fediverse when the servers will allow me, made chicken cacciatore for dinner (it was awesome) and now just wandering around lemmy.ml because I can. Life is good...

I also removed reddit from my home screen to give the Fediverse a genuine shot. Most places are pretty barren - but there is effort more or less all around trying to produce content.

Memes are pretty active but focused almost exclusively on reddit blackout and the capacity to engage over memes isn't big. World News isn't bad. And board games is spooling up as well. This however has been the most active slice I've visited so far; still mostly about the reddit blackout but there are other questions too. Aww is running and even NSFW slices are starting to get a trickle of original content.
