I'm using connect for lemmy and it's going good so far. I started reading more about a month ago to try to cut the addiction of reddit.
I've been reading Dracula and Frankenstein and both have been great. I'm reading dracula through Dracula daily, but doing my best to read most of it on soft cover. Frekensiten has been fantastic and I'm almost done. Couldn't recommended it more. There's no modern adaptation that does it justice.
Long story short, it sucks reddit is gone and my addiction to it is real, but lemmy and books specifically has been a good substitute
The Kindle app for my phone has been a life saver for me.
I still have the muscle memory to open up Reddit Sync any time I've got some downtime to kill. So having that as a quick alternative has been great.
