Yep same here! Still check reddit for certain things but dropped it significantly and started reading again.

Did you FIRE and calculate wrong or had a bad few economic years?

Does the connect app have comment navigation to jump to parent comments? I couldn't find it for weeks and I'm now using sync because it's so polished.

I paid for the sync app on Reddit back when it was like $2 or 5. I'm not paying $99 to remove ads. I know there are dev costs, but there aren't any API costs here right?

I'll still use Sync here until I see what Boost brings over it's released.

I read The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, and take enjoyed it. Read another book, then started reading Devil and the Dark Water by the same author. I got about 25% through and just decided to drop it for something else. I'm not an avid reader so i never know if I should stay committed or not.

Aren't there already agreements signed? That was part of the case.

The northern most part of Brazil is closer to Canada than it is to the southern most part of Brazil.

Source on the first world countries being down for years?

The new jerboa is a huge step up for me. Swiping to get back to the front page, and comment arrows to jump to level comments. Will use it until sync or boost hits.

I still visit reddit maybe once a day for 10 minutes for niche subs or communities that aren't built up here. If those communities develop here, I will fully cut out reddit.

Edit: also when noting that I use Lemmy amount 90% of the time now, but my overall usage of Lemmy/reddit has gone down. Probably for the better, because I started reading again.

I was on Jerboa for a few days when I first came over, then jumped to thunder and Liftoff. The new update for Jerboa is awesome and I'm using it exclusively until Boost or Sync.

It just sucks for new people who are looking for content in a new community and are just seeing shitposts.

I didn't read the article, just the headline, but both can be true. They lost money but made a ton again. It's no different than someone losing a huge amount in a 401k but then having even more money in the future by not selling and the market going back up.
