Haven't looked at the DT there in a couple weeks. I feel sad for the lost souls who haven't found their way here ๐Ÿ’”

Yeah some are put off by the ui and the bugs. I think a bunch just lost interest in this format overall.

I can say for myself that I became an avid DTer during the lockdowns and continued to drift in and out afterwards, out of habit. The Reddit blackout was a little bit of a reset switch for that habit - no longer instinctively go to r/melbourne when I open up a browser.

Still love the vibes of a/the DT (which is why I'm here!) but it stopped being such an instant thing that I opened.
