Came to lemmy for a bit when they killed 3rd party apps in July '23. But I switched back once I learned how to make Boost (my favourite reddit app) usable again.
Now I’m back here, hopefully permanently. Was calling out a troll on a local subreddit and found out users are now able to hide their post and comment history… Unless you keep a folder of screenshots of bots, trolls etc., it is hard to call them out now.
Boost is also on lemmy now, so that lessens the pain a little bit. But the communities that I used to frequent on reddit is close to dead here, especially my local community lol. So I’ve just been browsing active but most of these are irrelevant to me. So I turned back to spending my time on other things like reading, games, etc.!

Lemmy is exactly like Reddit was in the early days. Long before the enshitification started.
Back in those days niche forums still existed and search engines worked.
I’m happy here. I love it in fact.
