I was already slowly distancing myself from Reddit before shit popped off. It’s just noise. The internet is simply noise. There are things that I like to keep updated with, but a lot of it is just noise.
I also found myself questioning more and more why I give a shit in the first place to comment on things. Like, there’s just no reason for it. Nobody is asking for my opinion specifically, and really what do I gain from it anyway? Discussions are more like arguments nowadays, so what do I even gain from publicly making a comment on a topic? Nobody gives a fuck whether or not I’m interested in going to the theater over the weekend and seeing the new XYZ movie, or even what my opinions are of that movie, and the feeling is mutual because I know I don’t give a shit either.
Totally agree with you. Tbh this is the first time I’ve been active online since I quit Facebook two years ago. Used Rif to scroll through reddit, but wouldn’t comment much because there was no point. Now that’s going away, here I am. And I’m enjoying myself.
Reddit was my primary social media page for over 2 years now.
Now that it’s practically gone, finding good alternatives is hard.
