RedditIsFun closing down was the straw that broke the camels back. I keep tapping where it used to be in my most commonly used apps and opening WhatsApp instead… then I remember and scroll down to Jerboa instead. I think there’ll always be a reddit shaped hole in my heart, having been a redditor for about 14 years (changing accounts messed up my time keeping), but something may grow to fill the space yet.
We shall see. Whether its Lemmy, Mastodon, Calckey? I don’t yet know. Possibly I will need to start my own instance to feel at home, but I’m looking forward to that journey.
Finding a good analogy is hard. But at the risk of sounding like a snob, a little barrier to entry isn’t always a bad thing…
The thought of trying to explain this to one of our users (helpdesk monke). No thanks…
