Seriously... my oldest account on Reddit was 12 years old. I've been through so many changes that turned me off, but the API stuff was the last blow, and the CEO's love for Elon Musk just sealed the deal.
I won't lie that it's been an adjustment. Old habits die hard. Reddit is the one that I am more certainly done with. No one is on Mastodon yet so I do browse Twitter a little bit to get updates on the stuff I like, but don't interact there anymore.
Like, seriously, went through the last 10 years spending a good chunk of my day on Twitter and Reddit using Chrome, and suddenly I'm on Lemmy/Mastodon on Firefox.
I am very lucky that I got only 25% to pay left on my GTA suburb detached house - got it 12 years ago just before prices went cuckoo for cocoa puffs - but even then the variable payments are getting outta hand. Already thinking of doing some drastic changes to our lifestyle in order not to deplete our rainy day fund.
