People who still use both Reddit and Lemmy and are slowly leaving Reddit. How do you do it?
I have noticed that I’m very often on Reddit through either Apollo or the website out of mere habit (possibly even addiction). However, I have also noticed that the more I use Reddit, the more I feel agitated by all the negativity and toxicity from the users.
This is pretty much in all subreddits I’m active in. Mostly in piracy and piratedgames, people quarrel over the most trivial things and downvote each other for no reason at all.
Unfortunately, Lemmy has less content than Reddit. Though, I can’t call what is on Reddit content anymore.
Uninstall any apps for Reddit and decide that you are not ok with the data harvesting those apps do in you phone. Then set your browser to auto delete Reddit cookies. You will soon find yourself so annoyed using their webpage, that you will stop. Allow yourself to be subjected to their incessant cookie whining and dark patterns and hostile design, intended to push you to install their app.
or skip to account delete and never go there again.
i think most people are lurking on reddit now, most of them said they did it to avoid the bannings. hence why reddits is try to force people to use the app. The HORRID UI on new reddit on the browser on mobile is kinda unusable, i use an extensions, to force it to old reddit and make it properly resize on a mobile phone.
