people posting here are going out of their way to post -- and it feels like every thought has more weight or sanctity or meaning when it's being posted here, at the dawn of a new era and the fall of an old.

i'm spending more time actually reading and engaging with every comment, parsing the details and thinking about it, conceptually. versus just looking at garbage all day, garbage with a little bit of fentanyl in to keep you hooked

Agreed, it all feels a lot more human and natural. Though I will be glad when this Reddit thing calms down, at the minute we sound a bit like bitter angry ex-partners what with so many posts about it. It's to be expected I know, but once the community has let go of the past we can build a better future, I'm optimistic about that bit!

We may look back in the not-too-distant future and be pretty happy that the angry, bitter, Reddit "thing" happened. An open-sourced, federated model is just healthier than what most of us were satisfied with, before. It took all this to make this mass migration possible.
