I've been pleasantly surprised by the number of people who are continuing to stick with it + be supportive. I didn't expect anything beyond the planned end of the blackout, although I didn't expect thousands of subreddits to participate in that either. Either way I've basically cut Reddit out entirely. I used to scroll 2-3hrs a day and I'm down to maybe 10 minutes once or twice a week when I'm trying to find an answer to something. Attempting to fill my newfound free time has been.. fun

It's annoying that so much of my search results rely on community discussions from reddit. I've pretty much ditched the site entirely and am getting pretty comfy here, but a lot of historical discussions on reddit simply can't be replaced and likely never will be.

Well, no offense, but I don't want both of my arms broken to begin with, let alone what comes after!
