I've come up with the following rules for my own relationship with Reddit.

I will avoid posting on Reddit.
If I do post on Reddit, I must make a similar post on another forum, maybe Lemmy, maybe somewhere else.

Number 2 is important because it helps other small communities grow.

It's not a problem if a lot of people post on one forum, but it is a problem if a lot of people only post on one forum.

That said, I haven't posted on Reddit since June.

Deleted my 10 year account a few months ago. Haven't looked back. Once in a while my google searches will point me to some reddit thread, and I'll check it out, but I have logged in for the last time.

Same story here. Soon as they fucked around with Apollo I grabbed my towel and haven’t looked back. At this point my only interest is morbid curiosity about how bad it’ll get.

My rule is "don't post on Reddit unless it's giving a reason to delete it"
