I also have to fight the urge of not opening it, but I don't think I plan on coming back at this point. This made me realize that I was addicted to doomscrolling and constant brainless checking on my favorite subreddits. I genuinely found myself more productive than ever since I uninstalled Apollo when blackout started.
I knew I spent too much time on Reddit prior to this but the amount of times I find myself reaching for my phone and trying to open Apollo without thought (I uninstalled Apollo already) is a lot more than what I expected.
I've left other social media sites without much problem before.
My main problem is when I google stuff, I still try to add "reddit" but now I'm not sure what the alternative is to increasing the signal to noise ratio for results.
Yes, adding Reddit to search queries was a good way to make search engines less awful. Yesterday I used the search engine cache of the Reddit results a lot.
it's sad because my fav places on reddit are all related to sports (american football, football, baseball, chess, esports) and i don't want to go do discord.
tildes might fill the niche i have, but it's still quite small.
