      Because realistically I can only scroll on Fedi for maybe 20-30 minutes in a day before I’ve seen everything and if I have more time to kill, Reddit is there. Although I don’t comment there at all anymore, it’s truly worthless for conversation.

        Why not try Duolingo or something? Or a crossword? The NYT app lets you play some games for free.

      Reddit is fantastic for certain niche communities. On the whole, it fucking sucks, but it does contain so much helpful info because it just brings people together over a specific topic.

        There is literally nowhere else I can go for live game threads for sports as good as reddit.

          I dunno, being in a reddit thread for a big game isn’t really much of a discussion. It’s just flowing text like Twitch chat. Exciting maybe, but I don’t think it’s all that valuable.

            It’s not an improvement at all, Discord is actively terrible for any community bigger than about two dozen people and I hate that it has taken the place of traditional forums.

          There are so many of those. Literally just search the term sports forum, and there are millions of them that have extremely active threads for all games

      Because when Reddit fucks up those users will look for alternatives, like Lemmy.

      In this case it’s important to highlight that Lemmy has many different front ends and apps available. Lemmy can look however you’d like it to look.
