Or possibly the article is AI slop (at least, can someone find the pew survey they lead with and claim to base the headline from? see here)

A haha and a fuck you to the Reddit idiots who said we’d be back a week after leaving the platform due to the API shitstorm.

From the little I’ve seen (or more had to be exposed to) they are 100% convinced that Lemmy is like 10 people and nothing else exists. They’re so walled in, much of those walls being built by themselves.
On a vaguely related note, reddit has been so deeply shit now for long enough where it has stopped being a good source of info. It used to be such a good place to find just about any info via a search but now the results are just so fucking weird. Trying to find stuff about new-ish games, tech support, recommendations for anything etc. has become so much harder now.

also the lemmyee apocalypse that happened like 2 months ago, theres less content, because every dispersed to other similar platforms that interact with lemmy,. plus i have been blocking alot of people that may also reduce content too.

Can’t be back after I deleted my account can I. 😎 No, no, I will never be back on Reddit. I mean I want to. There’s a lot of content there that I’m missing out on that genuinely interests me. But I will not. I feel confident here. I feel welcome, at home.
There’s also the added benefit of being off my phone more since there isn’t as much content here.

That last sentence. It was truly an addiction that would lose me 3-4 hours a day. I get so much more shit done now.

The infinite scroll is very, very dangerous.

Personally I’ve noticed I’m taking more naps now which… It’s not really making me feel more productive but whatever

Who cares about productivity. You’ve reclaimed your time, and napping is probably better for you than whatever you were getting from Reddit.

now because of the massive bans waves, you cant go back anyways, even if you were not banned. the AI can " accidentally" ban you for botting.
