So long Reddit... It's been emotional

I'm actually looking into purchasing a Surface Pro 7/8 to replace my current laptop, and was wondering about compatibility for dual booting

My first distro was Redhat back in like 96? Then I moved to Slackware and never looked back and still use it today.

God bless those people

Haha wow. What next?!

I'm actually surprised anyone is left on that shell of a platform.

It all started with the socialably acceptable alcohol which I drank to extremes then came weed followed by the hard drugs later in life.

I got clean by turning up at a Narcotics Anonymous meeting and getting myself a sponsor and working the steps.

Just for Today - I'm clean and have a positive outlook on life

I've switched between Liftoff, Jerboa and Connect and although I don't feel there is much between either of them in terms of features and functionality, I have settled on Connect. I came over from Reddit and was a big fan of Slide and Infinity fwiw.

• maybe its just me but Jerboa and Liftoff regularly logged me out?!

I've barely been on Reddit this week and spend all my time here now instead lol. I dont think I'll quit Reddit completely but for now at least Lemmy is ticking all the boxes for me.

Slackware is still my go to, but I have many diatros installed on VM's.

I signed up to Reddit in 2014 and loved the platform to the point it was my goto when researching new purchases by looking for real world users of products, and would visit the platform multiple times each day. But sadly with all the stunts that have been pulled I have moved over to Lemmy like many others and in have to say i don't miss reddit at all.

Although Lemmy is now my goto I guess I'll still make occasional visits to Reddit.

Its such a shame that a once great platform is heading downhill. I'm still an occasional user of the site I'll admit, but i guess Lemmy is my goto these days.

I'm switching between Jerboa and Liftoff - Can't decide which one I prefer yet as both seem decent apps. I came over from Reddit and used Infinity and Slide fwiw
