Because realistically I can only scroll on Fedi for maybe 20-30 minutes in a day before I've seen everything and if I have more time to kill, Reddit is there. Although I don't comment there at all anymore, it's truly worthless for conversation.
You could always post content here yourself you know.
And the alternative to Lemmy is what? Viewing the same content of fifteen years reposted by a bot every once in a while, and having your discussion subverted by bad faith actors and bots?
I definitely don't feel like using Reddit much anymore. Most of my time is spent in a particular programming subreddit to answer such fruitful questions as 'what is a function' next to master thesis-worthy posts, which is entertaining I guess.
Reddit said a long time ago there were no plans to change availability of the HTML version of the website, and I suppose now there are plans driven by unscrupulous shareholder interests.
The lion's share of people are still on that platform, and those should be slowly nudged away from that burning garbage heap. It would be both tragic and hilarious at the same time if the mention of Lemmy caused the platform to ban you instantly.
Why not try Duolingo or something? Or a crossword? The NYT app lets you play some games for free.
