For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.

In a way I'm a little sad but I'm also hopeful. I started on Reddit 13 years ago and it was a very different place than it is now. I liked it better then, and I think I'm sad and will miss it for what it was, not what it is. I'm hopeful for a fresh start here on Lemmy where it feels like I'm getting back to the actual conversation with other users, which is what I miss about the current Reddit. There's very little conversation there anymore, so much of it is just pictures and jokes and bots.
