And saw a bunch of posts about the third party apps closing down, and lots of negativity about that whole fiasco.

… And I realized I hadn’t been there for a week… And frankly didn’t miss it. I am really loving the beehaw (and Lemmy as a whole) community. Thanks for being open, welcoming, responsive, engaging, and just generally nice people. I’m happy to be here. :)

    I think I’m going to still use reddit to solve certain problems when googling. It’s still a good resource for solving specific problems. Just won’t spend any browsing time there. Just in an out.

      Same here, Google has slowly become unusable for certain topics if you don’t append “reddit” to your search.

        It’s way too hard to cut through the search engine optimized spam when googling something now. Especially for product recommendations all you get are random top X lists.
