It took me probably less than a month to completely stop checking Digg altogether. Reddit’s decidedly less slick interface had me confused and the content wasn’t as easy to digest as with Digg, but it didn’t take long to completely abandon it. That was like ten years ago.
I guess a small point I’m trying to make is that you shouldn’t feel “shame” for checking reddit. You’ll adjust and learn to love whichever alternative you choose
I’m reading and commenting from fedia. Don’t even need to be on the same site as each other to access content.
This has the power to break the mould but eventually someone will need to pay the piper. I think we can bring it together as a community and I have a feeling this could even be done on a voluntary basis too.
Depends how the tech unfolds. I’m sure there will be major improvements made once adoption reaches critical mass.
for all the “clunkiness” its a surprisingly smooth experience, esp on a small instance.
