Out of solidarity with the blackout I'm staying completely off reddit until the 15th. After that I'll probably keep checking both. I really like lemmy and it's smaller community feel, but it has some bugs (the eternal scrolling of the "all" page for one) and it's very tech-oriented at the moment. There's not yet that many arts & craft or hobby communities yet, and those that exist are very, very quiet. Not that I need it to get as big as reddit, but more than 2 people active would be nice.
And I actually like the different feel of both, the fact that there's not that many bots (yet) floating around here, people actually discussing things instead of just downvoting you at the slightest disagreement, ... The scientific info on Mander is extremely interesting too, lots of great articles being linked instead of reddits' reposts every couple of days. So I think I'll stay active on both lemmy and reddit. They offer different things, and that's great.
I had to delete Apollo. I thought I could stay strong in solidarity but damn โฆ
I had to remove it from my Home Screen just because of the muscle memory. Iโve opened and immediately closed it so many times today.
I had to delete the browser bookmark for Reddit or I just open it without thinking.
