Yeah not much about this site gets me fired up and ready to go tbh. But it’s better than nothing!

I'm still running reddit for some other subs, but it seems that many are just going dark for longer or permanent.

We'll find other ways to kill time for sure.

Yeah my Reddit accounts still active, but the feed is pretty bleak! No daddit or bestofredditorupdates.

The Leafs sub is gone, hockey is still there but I'll see how it goes. Season just ended to it'll be slow for a while. Hopefully the good shit will migrate over to this side of the net.

For now I'll continue posting updates on my neighbour's lawn habits (he's out there right now digging something)

I really miss BORU! I stopped reading AITA because of all the creative writing exercises on there, but BORU was the good alternative.

i thought i was like 'meh fuck reddit it mostly sucks anyway' but didn't realise how much checking a few rotating niche/hobby subs was part of my daily internet. there isn't really an alternative for some of them

Kind of reminds me of hackernews, with its minimalistic look.
