Lemmy - Bailed on reddit during the API fiasco and found this community to be much more welcoming and enjoyable. I don’t get into fights on here at all because (most of) our users aren’t needlessly confrontational over inconsequential things. As a result, my levels of stress and general doom/angst have been much lower since migrating here. However, the election poisoned the well and I find myself avoiding Lemmy more often because I can’t sit here and read about Donald Trump all fucking day.
Facebook - I immigrated to a different country several years back and Facebook is unfortunately my easiest link to friends and family back home. It lets them share in my life here and see my daughter grow up.
WhatsApp/Facebook Messenger/Discord - Light/casual use for communicating with a select few friends or family members. Really not a fan of Discord, though.
