Leaving was easy.

Using the alternatives is hard.

    I agree. I miss Reddit because there is so much more content there, allowing me to scroll longer. Until the user and post count increases here, I feel like I catch up in about five minutes once a day.

    I agree, but I must admit a good chunk of my time was spent scrolling past familiar reposts, so to some extent the extra volume of content was a mirage and probably created by bots.

    I'm still working on subscribing to a wider variety of pups so I'll have more popping up in my Subscribed feed, but it's probably healthier that I'm not here quite so much of the day.
