I'm going to miss the ease of discussion Reddit could provide

As I participate in the boycott today and going forward, the biggest thing I've found I'm going to miss is the availability of discussion on topics. Obviously Reddit was never a bastion of truth and fact, but being able to find a discussion on a topic I was researching was always nice. For example today I was looking around for a fightstick / looking to see if one would be worth it for my use case, and Reddit was always the first result. What is everyone else unexpectedly missing from Reddit today?

Mostly this. I habitually add "site:reddit.com" to like anything if all I'm getting is bullshit generic articles. I keep getting forcefully reminded that every sub worth visiting is boycotting today. Hopefully that'll help me break the habit lol

r/personalFinance was helpful, if not repetitive at times, but there were so many people posting. There was always at least a few decent posts with different opinions. I'm surprised I haven't come across a replacement here yet.
