It took me probably less than a month to completely stop checking Digg altogether. Reddit's decidedly less slick interface had me confused and the content wasn't as easy to digest as with Digg, but it didn't take long to completely abandon it. That was like ten years ago.

I guess a small point I'm trying to make is that you shouldn't feel "shame" for checking reddit. You'll adjust and learn to love whichever alternative you choose

And convince people to come and create content here.

More freedom, no ads, not a profit seeking private company, privacy respecting.

Yeah, those ads. I was getting so tired of seeing that Jesus wants me to join the army and buy stuff from Amazon. Jeez.

I didnโ€™t see ads ever cus i was on Apollo, but that sounds terrible. They took my shiny Apollo away so now im gone too. Fuckem

Music to my ears. I mean honestly it just feels right compared to being essentially held hostage by chokepoint capitalism and all its fucking dark patterns and data mining.
