Reddit made it pretty easy to stop - their app is so bad I just don't bother logging in much.

I still check in a bit as I have a few open dialogues going but I don't browse it anymore.

Twitter is harder - too many people I follow.

Those are the two apps I used frequently before they both fucked themselves up. Oh, what a weird world we live in.

I guess the enshitification continues.

Yup. At least the twitter app (UI) isn't as bad as reddit's. But I'm blocking promoted tweets faster than a game of candy crush. I hope Mastodon takes off - not comfortable with Threads.

Reddit is just unusable - I never really liked Reddit until I found BaconReader. Those days are over. Such is life.

As for lemmy, it needs to mature, but that'll come. It's not bad..!

Threads is basically made by a company that already ruined a great social media app. And to see them becoming part of the fediverse is weird. Mastodon is pretty good. I'm planning on signing up for kbin too once an Android client comes along.
