    I’ve found most of the more niche stuff I used to follow on reddit here. However, they seem far more quiet (or just silent) here.

      Time for you to post then! I never posted much on Reddit but I’m making an effort on Lemmy to help it succeed.

          Same here. I’ve been commenting more, but it takes an unreasonable effort. Actually making a post seems really intimidating and it makes me exhausted to just think about it.

    I have only ever read about 20 subs on Reddit and I’ve never had an account there. I use Teddit to read them for stuff that hasn’t made it to Lemmy yet.

    Can you get on with using teddit.net which is a privacy-focused front end for Reddit? It doesn’t change much but they’ll get less useful data from you.

    Either way, if you use Lemmy more and Reddit less than you used to, they’ve still lost something.

    I don’t feel too bad when I’m forced to use Reddit as a resource, because I have a pihole as well as a ton of adblockers, and I don’t have a Reddit account anymore. I miss the niche communities, but I find that my life is better without that continual time sink with its constant silent downvoters, so I don’t visit just to browse nor do I interact with the site beyond a page view. No upvoting, no downvoting (of course it’s already impossible because I’m not logged in).
