Well, that was a nice run of no reddit after the app-ocalypse but after a little over a year after I quit I've started to find myself back on Reddit either for doom scrolling purposes or to actually engage with folks on more esoteric topics.
The app sucks and the webpage REALLY sucks, but its been hard going trying to find another web forum that's quite as robust as reddit is.
ATF is like a nice warm blanket, but its slow and its the same 15 octogenarians posting on everything around here, which is nice from a community perspective but crap from a "diversity of topics and viewpoints" perspective.
Other tech forums like TPU are too tech heavy and too lite on the actual community element.
And then it just seems to be a vast wasteland of BS comment sections that reward shitposting over anything else.
So, back to Reddit I go...
