Is anyone here so hardcore that they don’t even bother with mainstream social media? If its not on Lemmy or Mastodon it must not be important? Anyone that hardcore?

How has Lemmy been for you? How do you resist the call of Reddit on a Dark and stormy night?
Lemmy obviously is “smaller” so there isn’t as much breadth of content, but I like it. I just don’t like that the smaller community makes me feel like I’m more likely to be “recognized” over time, I prefer to be “just another voice.”
How I resist reddit is easy: fuck spez.
If you look a bit closer you’ll see so much AI slop on reddit these days that it’s hard to use. It boggles my noggle that the most obvious AI generated engagement bait gets posted on places like AITA including the classic Chad Jippity dashes and people engage with it.
Chatgpt, pretend you’re an abused woman. Your husband has cut you open and is currently wearing your intestines as a necklace but you’re not sure if you’re overreacting so you ask online. Put all the reddit karma in a bag once you’re done.
Fuck that shit.
I honestly don’t consider the sea of noise over there “social” media. So I never even think to go over to it. Like others, if an answer to a question happens to be on Reddit, I’ll read that while signed out.
Get permabanned for saying nazis should die lol
Honestly I am still struggling to avoid it, I browse a lot still, but they are no longer getting my content for free because I literally cannot.
i would revisit the niche subs i no longer can engage in, because the bigger subs/ and reddit has started banning people en masse.
I browse bluesky, news.ycombinator.com, or try and read a book 😅
