I’ve been looking for a reddit alternative for at least a year now, although I wasn’t too focused on it. I did try one (I can’t remember the name) but didn’t stick around because there was so little activity. The API change was the last straw. I actively looked for alternatives and someone recommended lemmy.

Had I known about lemmy before, I probably would have been here since last year, at least.

So. Much. This. Been working from home since the pandemic started. I guess being an introvert helped a ton since I know a lot of people who struggled with it.

I think for the social aspect, I noticed working from home removed (or at least dramatically decreased) the feeling of being in a team. I do miss that, surprisingly. Now it feels more like I’m a hired gun rather than a part of a team. We do have regular team meetings but it’s just isn’t the same.

Another pro is I get to interact more, despite in a limited fashion, with people from different countries. We usually had our higher ups manage that and just cascade when there was information to relay.

I don’t think I’ll ever go back to the office, tbh.

Firefox and Kiwi on mobile.

Firefox and Brave on desktop.

Oh and Chrome, too. I’m sorry but my job requires it. :(

I’m not really into posting stuff, even on Reddit. I mean, my life’s pretty mundane (lol) and I go to Reddit (and now here) to see interesting stuff.

I’m pretty active in the comments section, though. You guys can count on that.
