Honestly, i thought I would miss reddit more, but I haven't been back since I moved here and haven't thought about it one bit. I expect I'll still end up on reddit occasionally when I search for something, but I don't see myself ever posting there again.
It's been refreshing that my lemmy subscription feed is purely related to my hobbies and misc interests and makes me want to come back more often. my main reddit feed has been so full of unnecessary filler for a while now, im actually getting more value out of browsing here instead
But yea idk if the habit of adding site:reddit.com to searches is gonna go away any time soon lol
I would from time to time. If posts from a sub annoyed me I'd unsub. But even the subs I still enjoy had gone down in quality over time. Whether its bots stealing comments, bots reposting recent popular posts, or something that looks like a discussion only to see its a long thread of 3 people arguing relentlessly over semantics. So starting fresh has been nice.
you can always browse it thru a privacy-friendly frontend that scrapes the site, like libreddit or teddit. This way you get any answers or whatever you might want, no ads or bloat, and reddit inc doesn't benefit
