How has it been for you? Do you get FOMO feeling sometimes?

I use Reddit less and less but haven’t fully quit yet. Always have this odd feeling of FOMO regards content.

Not only that, some subreddits haven’t migrated to any other platform unfortunately. Or they have but the content is very little compared to Reddits content.

Note - wasn’t sure where to post this. So if this wasn’t the right place, apologies!

The issue I have with Reddit - it’s full of hateful people and most content is just bots karma farming.

EDIT: Thanks for all the responses!

EDIT 2: Thanks for the ones that mentioned RSS-Feed. Just got it and it’s amazing. Still manage to only follow the subreddits that I like without crapads.

    it seeps into your brain that you cannot say something mildly wrong or controversial without the mob snowballing your comment to death.

    It wasn’t like that over here a few months ago, but unfortunately that’s starting to change.

      From my view the more of Reddit that comes here the farther right we go. My first experiences on Lemmy were somewhat off-putting because it was so far left I couldn’t relate, like literally just ignorant anarcho-commie shit that doesn’t have any basis in reality. Now I’m seeing more and more centrist and far-right-too-comfortable-with-fascism shit that I also can’t relate to and feel repulsion from. Not sure what the perfect balance would be, but I think there was a day or so there where it might have existed on Lemmy.

        Huge swathes of Lemmy are deeply transphobic. I’ve never seen such bullshit on Reddit. I agree there are more communists, and that’s great, but unfortunately there are a lot of politically engaged and deeply ignorant people running large instances.

      Yeah, that big wave brought a lot of that culture over here and it might be self-sustaining…
