And you can add me to the statistics of today. I'm a Boost user for Reddit. It feels so weird not having it on my phone anymore. Like I've gone to work without any pants on. I've been active on reddit for 13 years and it's been genuinely difficult leaving it behind. I'm hoping this can be my new home. I just wanna be a chill dude who likes to talk about Star Trek (keep the 'Thats not real Trek' away from me, thanks), Star Wars (same sentiment), and share information. A place where I can vent after life inevitably kicks me in the teeth again.
Still just low-key stunned that my name was up for grabs.
