There are some things I miss about reddit, I just noticed spoiler tags don't seem to work (at least on Jerboa), and sometimes the image display is way too small. That being said, I'll be sticking around here more because I genuinely think it can be better than reddit in the long run if it picks up enough steam.
Definitely won't be deleting my reddit though, as I'd like to believe some of my comments/posts were actually helpful for niche questions. As an example, A few weeks ago my several-year-old post got a comment describing a solution for my 2012 HP server that wasn't detecting more than 1 core in Proxmox (a server OS). Regardless of how bad reddit is, it saved me in weird problems like that multiple times, so I'm personally against giving up all of that information just for the sake of protest.
