I was already seeing Reddit hitting an "Eternal September" situation where the general vibe was a total antithesis to what had me there for over a decade to begin with, but then they forced my preferred app to shut down which kind of forced my hand to jump into something and Lemmy was as close to the format I prefer, along with it being the number one solution most others in the exodus were proclaiming to try. This and Tildes, but Tildes requires an invitation, so... Here I am.
