I won't be using both because I don't feel comfortable with that plan for myself, but I totally understand your reasoning. My life choices followed a different path when it comes to social media. I just like this environment so much because there are really cool people to interact with. Even if I get in an argument with somebody, it's good for me because we're having a reasonable argument. On Reddit, Facebook, Twitter, social media et al you can't do that. I feel more me on here.
Glad you feel that way. Hope to see you around.
Absolutely. I'm not trying to shit on Lemmy or anything. It's a cool idea.
I'm still on reddit, but it seems like the only place I'm going now is /r/SBCgaming, as it's one of my interests that hasn't seen much traction here. I made a post suggesting people move to lemmy.world, but it was near unanimously panned, people weren't interested.
If and when I have anything interesting to post I'll do it here on lemmy and link it probably to the subreddit. The main thing I notice though is I spend much less time on reddit now. Since there's no reason to stay outside of a niche interest subreddit, I'm not browsing around different subreddits or hitting up the front page anymore. Which in hindsight is actually kind of nice, it no longer feels like an endless distraction.
