I still go there because of all the firearms related content but on the whole I'm using both Beehaw and reddit a lot less than I was using Reddit before.
I downloaded infinity for reddit. Scrolled few post and deleted the app. Back to lemmy.
I didn't return, don't want to...
I got ip banned so all my muti year accounts were toasted. Kinda took the joy out of it for me. I made new accounts but they'd get banned too for a while. I have one still but it's inactive. The users there feel so fake, constantly on a high horse or acting like victims. I don't find the people there to be reasonable and the communities i liked are here on lemmy now. Lemmy people are less like bots, and are more inviting to conversation
I check it frequently but I only check my fave music subs, and even so I don't watch/listen to everything posted there. For me, the main difference has been the heaven sent lack of engagement on mostly trivial topics that seem to appear every single day on the rest of the subs I used to follow.
Yeah, I'm really not a fan of it anymore. After several post removals, and a unwarranted warning on my account, I am just done with it.
every time i go back to reddit there's a blacklog of content waiting that somehow never makes it to the fediverse and a few things that were earth shaking and the fediverse didn't pickup on at all.
Not sure if Lemmy is better or if reddit has just fallen so hard over the years. There's either been a stark decline recently or some time away has given me fresh eyes to see how bad it is. It's just a social media feed like any other now. The comments are noticably dumber and low effort rains supreme.
Lol yeah, I just couldn't take the echo chamber of radical Lefties anymore. I'm by no means a Trump-voting conservative but if you even hinted at an opinion that didn't fit the narrative you got piled on with downvotes and abuse like some kind of bigoted leper.
