How has it been for you? Do you get FOMO feeling sometimes?

I use Reddit less and less but haven’t fully quit yet. Always have this odd feeling of FOMO regards content.

Not only that, some subreddits haven’t migrated to any other platform unfortunately. Or they have but the content is very little compared to Reddits content.

Note - wasn’t sure where to post this. So if this wasn’t the right place, apologies!

The issue I have with Reddit - it’s full of hateful people and most content is just bots karma farming.

EDIT: Thanks for all the responses!

EDIT 2: Thanks for the ones that mentioned RSS-Feed. Just got it and it’s amazing. Still manage to only follow the subreddits that I like without crapads.

    I left reddit completely when they started taking over subreddits if the mods refused to stop their protest. I think subreddits are created by the mods, maintained by the mods, and simply hosted by reddit. In a moral sense (but not in a legal sense) the subreddits belong to the mods and I couldn’t support reddit’s new policy by participating in it.

    Lemmy is way worse than reddit, simply because it’s so small. I used to participate primarily in subreddits for obscure video games, blogs I liked, and other niche interests. None of that is here yet. Even my guilty pleasure, AITA, isn’t here yet. But the only way to change that is by participating here myself, and in the meanwhile I spend a lot less time just browsing random stuff which is a win for my productivity.
