I'm having fun with the Fediverse. I'm pretty sure Reddit doesn't care if everyone leaves. I still like reading news about them but I've not been back. If I accidentally click on someone's posted reddit link (happens a lot - trying to retrain!) I back out quick before it loads.
I have to say though, I'm going through Reddit withdrawal this week. I've also moved away from Twitter. Even though the Fediverse is great, it's still growing and the apps don't have everything I need. I've been grumpy and unsettled and 100% it's because my beautiful Reddit app and routine has gone away.
This is the whole reason I still haven't uninstalled Boost. It doesn't work anymore but it's still set to open as my default, so if I ever click by accident, I'm met with a blank screen before I remember.
There’s a boost for Lemmy. Idk if it’s ready (I’m on iOS, but used to use boost on android, and I miss it so much, I just come across the news now and then), but you might be able to test it if not!

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !boostforlemmy@lemmy.world
Not on Lemmy, so I've just consented to wave sadly as my old love passes me by. It was a fantastic app and will continue to be. Kbin's waiting on Artemis, and until then I'm surprisingly satisfied. I do appreciate it, though!
Don't worry it will get better and in the long term you will feel even better than before you quit reddit. For me quitting reduced the time spent on my phone by more than an hour per day.
