One of the biggest things holding me back from leaving Reddit, despite the fact I hate the way they are handling, well, everything, is the sense of community with people sharing similar experiences as me, as well as sharing my hobbies. It’s nice to be able to look at things other people made in a hobby you’re interested in, but even moreso it’s nice to be able to relate your struggles with others sharing your struggles. To leave reddit would mean leaving behind r/ADHD and r/ADHDmemes which allow us to vent and make light of our daily struggles. It’s nice that there is another community here I can turn to instead. I hope this platform continues to grow and improve, so I don’t ever have to look back on the pile rubble that reddit is quickly becoming.

    I made an effort every year or so to cull any subreddits with a lot of negativity. All the supportive communities that were important to me also have doppelganger communities here on Lemmy that i’m now subscribed to. I like the positivity on this platform better anyway so getting rid of reddit will just make my life better.
