due to the rolling blackout... I think it's had its effect.

I think I am done with reddit.

it's a shame because as someone who doesn't use Facebook it was nice to have a sense of local community I otherwise don't get online.

I still think besides the few odd regulars who brought the vibe down every chance they could, it was a genuinely great subreddit.

anyway, I'm just curious how many of you are well and truly done with reddit? not even going back for a peak?

I'm done with reddit entirely. I started over 16 years ago. It was getting steadily worse year over year ever since the Digg migration. It has long since been relentlessly toxic and negative. I've been wanting a viable alternative for a long while. I'm very grateful for what spez has done as it's created multiple viable alternatives and I'm fucking loving it. Between here and Tildes, it's very close to what super old school reddit was like, and I've missed that a lot. I have no reason to go back. And with the changes both to the apps and now the user population, it'll only be worse still. Regardless, I couldn't be happier about this. This is far better. And the internet is better for it.
