For me, no matter what Reddit is dead. Lemmy is enough for my time wasting and has enough content that I have not missed it one bit. I feel like the communities are smaller, less toxic, and I want to contribute more here.

It just amazes me a site that exists to link to other content on the web and store text comments about said content isn’t profitable.

Is it physically separating or is there oxidation on the plug? Maybe some dielectric grease in the female side would help that?
