    For the semi-lurker like me there’s nothing holding me back to Reddit. Some current news, sprinkle of meme, some draft comments that I will never submit and some meaningful discussion from community, fediverse has all those.

      I’m going to keep Reddit for specific interests like specific sports teams or specific game franchises. I haven’t really seen a replacement for decent engagement for those. But other than that I’ve already trimmed down my subs to almost nothing. There’s a lot less activity on those, so my Reddit time will be about like my Facebook time, which is a couple minutes a day to see any updates before closing.

      I think it’s going to be a nice change of pace to not have those big subs taking up so much of my time doomscrolling.
