Reddit Activity Plummeted After The Protests (www.garbageday.email)

Excerpt:

Most major subreddits show a decrease of between 50 and 90 percent in average daily posts and comments, when compared to a year ago. This suggests the problem is way fewer users, not the same number of users browsing less. The huge and universal dropoff also suggests that people left, either because of the changes or the protests, and they aren’t coming back.

I haven't posted once since RIF was disabled. I think my account is up to 16 years now. I've been on a subreddit if Google brought me there, but I don't browse anymore.

Jerboa is pretty similar to RIF so it's been great.

If you haven't, give Sync a try too. Really nice coming from years of RIF.

Going to put a plug here for Thunder. I used RedReader as my reddit app of choice and Thunder in compact mode is almost exactly the same as how i used RedReader. Love it.

yo, i just left Jerboa for Sync. i second the other commenter by suggesting you give Sync a shot.

Infinity just moved to a subscription model, so i don't have to check anymore

Even though I've already been using the Lemmy fork, Eternity, its nice to know that I'm basically never gonna have to use that god forsaken site ever again

I still can't bring myself to delete it. It just sits there on my phone, all sad.

Same. I have an Android too where Sync and Sync for Lemmy hang out right next to each other alphabetically.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Yup. Every so often I click the wrong one

Shit, I still have alien blue. Oh, the memories. Thank you, Jase and Christian.
