And after the 1st of July too, probably
Definitely not. Before people were migrating from Twitter only just to go back
People go to twitter to see what famous people and influencers have to say.
People to go Reddit for the consolidated forums while also being able to browse a bunch of other entertainment and memes all in one shot. Or at least I do. The breadth of offerings of Reddit is a selling point.
reddit has so many users that basically all interests are covered. I can look up an discussion thread on relatively obscure anime/manga that came out 8 years ago. That's hard to compete with and why I won't be quitting reddit entirely.
Yup, I've ended up having better luck searching for a product with "site:reddit.com" as well. It's also been the home for memes for quite some time. Even when I don't feel like delving into discussions on things, it's still the best / easiest place to scroll silly pictures and laugh for a bit when I'm lifting at the gym and between sets.
I won't be quitting though I'll be trying to dwindle my use a bit. I'm not much of a doom scroller but I will run through a list of subreddits on a regular basis.
