I know, I know, reddit sucks ass. I’ve been using firefox with ublock to read the best ofs for the unquenchable need for bullshit drama in my life.

But now it’s not just a pop up saying to use the app, but a full ass unpassable thing. Old Reddit still works, but that’s just another step for something that’s already so not worthwhile.

Welp…

    Fedi being way slower than Reddit was a godsend to me. It helped me detox from the endless content on Reddit because I was going loopy.

    After the 5th scroll past the same boring hornypost I’m like “ugh I guess I’ll put the phone down and go to sleep.”

      While I agree, there are plenty of chill subreddits that are full of interaction and the counterparts here aren’t very active. I know that it’s up to us to start creating the posts but I’m more of a lurker and replier.

      i usually visit identifying unknown plant (it was fun since i was able to see people post rare and unusual plants that are very rarely seen by normally)and animal subs, because politics post is designed to get people to be angry and comment.

      I need to find a client that does paginating instead of infinite scroll. It’s like a fucking vortex, I can’t pull myself away from it…
