I don't think I'm ready to leave reddit completely, but I don't want to stay there. My compromise has been to bookmark niche subs that still don't have an active equivalent on fediverse or elsewhere. At the very least, I don't have to settle for the insufferable communities on reddit when better communities exist here. So long r/nintendo, r/pokemon.

I find myself doing far less doomscrolling on one site now, and more popping into different places on different sites like I used to pre social media hubs. I might visit my hometowns sub or r/ADHD on reddit, read about current events or gaming news here, and pop into tildes for pleasant conversation. All in all, if there is one positive thing the reddit enshitening has caused, its for the web to feel less centralized and a little more like 2008's internet.

and I can only hope this trend continues.

I’m reading this on beehaw lemmy on Memmy app so maybe not!

@LSNLDN Yeah, it federated fine, but it's a kbin post made to a kbin community, so I thought it worth mentioning that it doesn't appear on the default tab of that community when viewed from kbin
