I haven't been on Reddit since the 11th... Anyone else? (beehaw.org)

Just realized that the other day.

I had initially intended to feel it out and honor the blackout from 12-14, then figured, "I'm here now, might as well ride out the month if Reddit isn't responding in any meaningful way to the community's requests" and now I think I'll just be in the fedi apps for the foreseeable future.

It's different here, but it hasn't been a struggle and it gets better and better with time. Feels nice to not support inhumane and user-hostile endless corporate greed.

I didn't quit. I still have an account with roughly, 19000 karma, where I posted and commented some interesting stuff, as well as shitposts. It became quite personal to me, as it wasn't Facebook and discussions were more genuine and clever.

I'm still under the shock of the entire thing. I still enter periodically. However, this whole thing feels so foreign. Foreign, yet so familiar. Since I had my account. And the discussions are kinda the same. The same I went in, the same discussions that I enjoyed. Yet I feel I no longer belong in that place. That is no longer representing me. And I kinda find it weird.

However, I love this place. I love Kbin. I love the fediverse. I love the fact that I no longer need x accounts and x apps for all my social needs. With one account, I can follow stuff from everywhere. And I do not get ads. I get the content. I am not the product of a social network. :D
