I still visit reddit maybe once a day for 10 minutes for niche subs or communities that aren't built up here. If those communities develop here, I will fully cut out reddit.

Edit: also when noting that I use Lemmy amount 90% of the time now, but my overall usage of Lemmy/reddit has gone down. Probably for the better, because I started reading again.

Are you me? I've been off Reddit like a week now and I've already read two books with the extra time I don't spend doom scrolling.

In fact, I am you. What are we reading? I just finished 7 1/2 deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle and Project Hail Mary.

Good stuff. We just read Cinema Speculation and the first volume of Elric of Melniboné.

Oh how I wish someone would make a shittymobilegameads community.

...or for me to get the willpower and motivation to do it myself.
