  • official client is customisable and by default looks way better than discord, third party clients are allowed, it’s feels the opposite of corporate, doesn’t have AI, has its original features like multireplies and except for the pretty inferior voice chat that will undergo rewrite there aren’t really any I miss, I do quite well without super reactions. as for now donations are sufficient, you always have an option to self-host and tbh if it was federated most people would be on the official server, it would be harder for normal people to join and moderation would be harder so I’m pretty ok with not having it there… not like discord has that







  • I think the fact you use it more than you would expect is expectable with the fact it’s new to you and the blackout is still going for half of the subreddits, looking at the stream - that’s captivating. Also Reddit already has estabilished communities while here is the Wild West, revolution is… revolving. We’re here for it. But never think you’re missing out, whether you’ll spend here 5 minutes or hours. In the end does it really matter you know what Reddit CEO said this morning? And this platform is decentralised and open source, whatever wouldn’t happen there will always be an instance. If you feel too distracted by this place (don’t blame you, I’ve just joined and I’m like wow) and you feel that it will be better for you, feel free to look at Reddit …but maybe actually take a break from both. while exciting, social media can be a bit stressful and if you feel like you could be doing something productive, dedicate your time to that. if you just want to waste your time a bit, maybe try sketching or a little code - it feels good to create something
