I went to Reddit today... (beehaw.org)

191 comments fedilink hide all child comments

And saw a bunch of posts about the third party apps closing down, and lots of negativity about that whole fiasco.

... And I realized I hadn't been there for a week... And frankly didn't miss it. I am really loving the beehaw (and Lemmy as a whole) community. Thanks for being open, welcoming, responsive, engaging, and just generally nice people. I'm happy to be here. :)

If there's content on Reddit you absolutely must view, I definitely endorse RSS readers. No need for an account and you get rid of the infinite scrolling and data mining of the Front-page view

Wait, I didn't know that it's possible to use RSS readers to view Reddit. Just tried it out, and it's even better than using old Reddit (which I've been doing for ages).

Edit: Here's how to use RSS readers to view Reddit.

If there’s content on Reddit

And there are a lot of content there indeed. I find myself constantly appending reddit or site:reddit.com to my search engine terms in a desperate attempt to get information from real-ish people and not from SEO shit.

That's what I'm going to miss the most. It was so hard to find quality content outside of Reddit already, and with "AI" it's just going to get worse.
