should we be discussing reddit less? (beehaw.org)

Seems like a good portion of the activity in the communities is reddit oriented. If the goal is leaving/hurting reddit, it seems we should be continuing on like it doesn't exist, instead of continuing to drive interest to the site. Thoughts?

I think it depends on how invested you were in that other site initially. I had been there over 11 years and used to doom scroll it about 30-45 minutes a day. It's not been easy, but I have deleted my content and my account and have completely committed myself to the fediverse and the content on here. I haven't been back to the other site in a few days, hopefully never will but we are all different. Ite been really refreshing to have actual discussion on here as well; been thoroughly enjoying myself.

Your content may return. Reddit owns it and has been restoring it in some cases.

Meanwhile, you can delete from your kbin / Lemmy, but the others might cache it for eternity.
