I started redditing about 8 years back. After digg.
Leaving reddit is hard but I have generally enjoyed forums and lemmy is a fun new experience I haven't had in a while.
If anything, in 10 years I can do the whole 'I was here at the start' thing on the younglings.
Old Slashdotter here. I skipped Fark and Digg and went straight to Reddit. I'm very happy to be here in the Fediverse/Lemmy world now.
I don't remember exactly how I came to Reddit, but I know I'm in the 13-year club. I remember when all the Digg users came over and remember they're being a lot of anger and memes about it. But I've been around long enough to where moving to a different platform doesn't phase me in the slightest. In fact, I'm really enjoying this feeling of a reinvigorated community.
