Ive been on reddit for more than a decade. Kinda bittersweet, but its not the first time I have moved on from an internet site. I just cant support reddit and sucking up all my posts for AI purposes. Feels terrible and spammy. Ive been a reddit premium holder for many many years.

Anyways, what communities do you recommend?

Block stuff you don't want to see. I block porn, sports & country specific ones that I do not speak the language.

[-] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Just hide NSFW content. 98% of that is porn.

I prefer to sort by either hot or active, then I sort by New once I’ve run through everything. But you do you.

[-] Assman@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago

Agree, I start my day on active, but once I've seen all those I do top six hours, then new.

[-] gregorum@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago

I start with hot, then go backwards through those. I like to start general and then go granular.
