For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.

    Hmm~ I guess I feel sad a little, yeah. Reddit was a pretty cool place. Still is if you hang in the right communities. But I do most of my browsing using a mobile app as of late and if they’re killing off RIF and Apollo, I might as well look elsewhere. I also feel a little optimistic about this “migration” slowly taking place, since this time it’s not out of some knee-jerk reaction to admins banning some problematic subreddits, spawning places like Voat.

    And the federated, open-source nature of Lemmy/Kbin/Mastodon reminds me of how a group of friends can create their own Discord server.
