due to the rolling blackout... I think it's had its effect.

I think I am done with reddit.

it's a shame because as someone who doesn't use Facebook it was nice to have a sense of local community I otherwise don't get online.

I still think besides the few odd regulars who brought the vibe down every chance they could, it was a genuinely great subreddit.

anyway, I'm just curious how many of you are well and truly done with reddit? not even going back for a peak?

I used to have a Reddit tab open all the time on my phone and PC, and spent hours scrolling.

I've now drastically cut down on my time there, mostly just skimming through r/Perth and that's it. I also use it to help my kid with Minecraft stuff but I'm looking for alternatives. It's such a pity because it's a treasure trove of knowledge and I don't even use 3rd party apps, but the contempt and disrespect shown to users is just terrible.
