      There’s too many answers over the past decade to abandon reddit completely. Most google searches for specific questions go back to Reddit.

        I’ve heard that Reddit is trying to kill that too so people will use their godawful search feature instead. I got a prompt from the site to take a survey about it sometimes last month and that’s what people were theorizing that it was about.

        I’ve had some searches lead me to old reddit threads where the answers are all deleted a few times since migrating here already. So even that is becoming less true than it used to be.

        Yeah I only get back on Reddit from a search engine hit. And even then I’ll use the cached copy if I can.

      Same. I realised 95% of Reddit for me was just the bants and chitchat. There’s a few communities I miss, but I can easily get my kicks here.

      Same here. I do go back for some niche browsing, but mostly over here now.

        I’ll go back there if they have some specific discussion with good info. I.e. Linux, video games, something. But signing in and browsing? No way.
