How has it been for you? Do you get FOMO feeling sometimes?

I use Reddit less and less but haven’t fully quit yet. Always have this odd feeling of FOMO regards content.

Not only that, some subreddits haven’t migrated to any other platform unfortunately. Or they have but the content is very little compared to Reddits content.

Note - wasn’t sure where to post this. So if this wasn’t the right place, apologies!

The issue I have with Reddit - it’s full of hateful people and most content is just bots karma farming.

EDIT: Thanks for all the responses!

EDIT 2: Thanks for the ones that mentioned RSS-Feed. Just got it and it’s amazing. Still manage to only follow the subreddits that I like without crapads.

I sold my account and blocked Reddit at the DNS level. I set up a bunch of feeds in Inoreader to stay on top of topics I care about like local news, gaming, tech, etc.

The only downside has been while playing BG3 and Googling things, Reddit results usually come up first and look the most spot on. Other links are either AI generated garbage or articles that are ten paragraphs when two sentences could have been done.
