  • Reddit was the front page of my internet for about 15 years. It’s felt like breaking up with an abusive partner. I get by now on a mixture of Lemmy and Discord. I also check out Apple News and Google News, but it seems like the bulk of the content is behind paywalls these days. On the bright side, I’ve found a new hobby as a visual novel developer. There’s suddenly so much more free time to try things like that when I’m not surfing Reddit all the time.

    I think Lemmy and other federated social platforms of this type will really take off when the mobile apps start popping up. I just hope that the moderation tools can keep up with the influx, and that people will have the appetite to donate to keep these instances running.
