I haven’t gone back since Apollo shut down, and not planning to, but I am curious.

Ah, yes, typical reddit addict having withdrawal syndrome.

Don't look back...

    Is it withdrawal symptoms if I'm only curious out of spite?

    Haha.

    I find the best way to handle withdrawal is to change your habit. I spent time grabbing a few books, and spent a few days with my Kindle or with Foliate fullscreen on my HDTV.

    So before, I'd probably spend time answering r/firefox, looking at r/firefoxcss - now I start with 1/2 hour reading Great Expectations. After reading a chapter, I play the same chapter via audiobook - meanwhile I have a couple of TV/Movie versions queued up to watch after finishing reading.

    After that I'd probably get into some DadJokes - I can do that on https://lemmy.world/c/dadjokes

    Next up, an hour reading The Midnight Library

    Hello!

    May I ask why you are listening to the same chapter after reading it? :) Is it to retain the information or just to not miss anything? Do you do the same regardless if you're reading fiction or non-fiction?

    i have relapsed for the past several days... mostly because my app (boost) has not yet been shut down.

    i have been enjoying my fix, but I it does leave me feeling dirty.

    As a fellow booster... You're a whore 😉. Hoping rmayayo really does put together a lemmy/fediverse app.

    I'd LAUNCH the Rocket!
