Where are all of the reddit refugees these days? (lemm.ee)

Just making sure I'm in the right place. I cannot see any developed communities here so I've started wondering, what's the real place everyone from Reddit has moved to? I've heard something about Discuit, but never tried it.

I do it too... It may be low quality but its kind of like meeting friends - not everything someone says is going to be very interesting but at least it's socializing...

That's true. And there are a few positive aspects. I like talking to different people across the globe. I wouldn't know about the struggles of everyday American life or the UK healthcare fuckups if I wasn't here. And sometimes you get into an argument and get to learn stuff. It's just still a form of social media. I think you still got to pay attention not to overdo stuff and participate in the conversations that are good for you. It is still easy to waste your time. Albeit not as easy as doomscrolling on Reddit or YouTube.
