I agreed with the mods in /r/gis that there should be an indefinite blackout and got downvoted. Some person even called me "fucking stupid." That place is such a toxic dumpster fire. I'm happy for kbin/lemmy.
For sure. This was absolutely the kick I needed to get off reddit. Spent way too much time there, and with Fediverse being far less busy with doomscrolling content, I'm more productive at work (who knew??).
Not your boss, luckily!
But yes the same ... This has reminded me of the early days of Reddit itself. Far fewer uses and posts so generally actually interesting rather than 'scroll fodder'
To be honest, changing from Reddit official to Boost reduced the addictive nature of Reddit a little. I can't grasp what caused that change, but it was a positive one for sure. Now I feel that even less here.
any suggestions for a geospatial community here?
I too reside in a geospatial location; let's talk!
The people that are still on reddit really are the worst it seems they actively call everyone that participates the r* word basically. They don't care what happens to reddit.
