Yeah, I keep starting to type "reddit.com" into my browser address bar. Luckily "feddit.de" isn't too far off.

I made sure to pause RIF so I don't just blindly click on it.
I was trying to describe a former subreddit on a thread here and just habitually looked for its subreddit description and then remembered it was dark and that's why I was on lemmy in the first place.
A suggestion I've seen is to add reddit.com to your ublock origin "my filters" page. It works great for me!
Forward it to Lemmy :)
Set the website on the blacklist in your browser
I haven't felt the need to look up anything tbh. I realized I didn't really search reddit specific as much as I thought. Maybe I'm just more practiced and used to sifting through Google results for the info I need. Not sure if web of trust is still reliable?
For me, once Apollo officially stops working I won't have any ingrained habit for reaching out to reddit. I stopped using the website years ago except for reading search results that point there.
that's the shittiest part of this whole situation, so much knowledge is stored on that closed platform, so much helpful information. all because search engines became a game of SEO
I’ve already opened and quickly closed Apollo a dozen times today. Time to break the habit. Going to start reading instead of doom scrolling.
In soviet Russia, Reddit habbit breaks you.
Yep. Same here. I needed an answer about makemkv audio files. I instinctively clicked 3 different reddit links. Finally got my answer on some other random forum, but I feel like reddit would have been better 🙁
