On Reddit I generally didn’t read attached articles. I’d developed a pretty good intuition where the article title, website and top comments could tell me all I needed to know (And reading the source normally confirmed this)
On Lemmy the smaller numbers of comments mean we need to engage with the content being discussed more directly, which is quite a nice change of pace for us Reddit converts.
It was a hard decision, but I nuked my comment history before I left. Figured you got to burn your ships to motive the men.
I nuked my post history a few days ago. Apparently reddit is going so far as to undelete content from prominent contributors, so better to just check back in a few days.

Hasn’t happened to me personally though.
