I just catched myself looking at reddit again.

To remind myself not to use reddit in the next few days (or never again if I succeed) I added it to my uBlock filter list. Additionally I deleted all reddit apps from my phone.

What's your strategy on how to avoid reddit?

Lemmy seems to cover most of the content from larger subreddits. For the smaller, or more specific communities (such as local subreddits or those for hobbies/interests) they generally have a Discord server to join.

So between Lemmy and Discord, I've eliminated the need to use Reddit at all. This isn't without it's flaws or drawbacks, but it 'scratches the Reddit itch', I guess.

Is there any list of the larger communities on here? I've hadn't had much luck just browsing all

I've been using browse.feddit.de. It provides a list of some of the largest communities across instances and allows you to search for communities as well.
