I'm spending it on Lemmy.

I also deleted my rif app so I don't accidentally open it.

So far I've had a pretty darn good experience. It scratches the same itch. But in other ways it's better than Reddit - there's no chance of karma whoring here as there's no real karma system. Upvotes and downvotes are merely tools for boosting visibility and don't have any additional meaning.

Then again, the jerboa app could use more polish and qol updates and additional features, really the Lemmyverse is still early days, like a new house with no furnishings and no front garden, it's bare it's not comfortable yet, but it's all shiny and unmolested. I'm sure things will get better over time.
