I spent it hunting down a reddit alternative and browsing on lemmy.

I'm not going back. Reddit will go downhill gradually as it tries to squeeze out value at the expense of the community, and that's not something I'm going to support it any way.

This is day 2 for me on Lemmy, plus a bit of time for the previous 3 or 4 messing about here and there. And... I'm kinda in love. I just hope there's more people showing up, with more content and such soon :)

I realized how hard Reddit is getting astro turfed by large organizations and I'm glad to be somewhere it's not yet a problem.
