    I still use RedReader for general stuff, and rss feeds of subs for porn, and I’ll check the bird once a week for people I follow for the same reason. But for reddit, my few hours a day has become a fraction, and even a decent amount of the people I watch on both platforms are either shifting elsewhere (yay) or just closing up shop (very not yay).

    I was ~11 years in for reddit, and like 9 or so with birdy.
