for the Reddit refugees, do you also feel a bit heartbroken? (self.asklemmy)

For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.

Eh, good content was less and less common in a sea of low effort fluff and reposts. Once I started actively blocking subreddits I didn't care about, I got deeper into the fluff much more quickly.

There will always be nerds pooling quality content. Reddit was the best place for that for a while, but like all pools it had grown stagnant. I'm excited to witness the revitalization afforded by migration. The site is just a site. It was nice, but all things must pass, and metamorphize in passing.
