I can't speak for losses, but I can say I visit almost every day. I get my news from here and feel informed.
Since all of the Reddit changes happened I took the time to try and back away from social media as I had a sort of addiction and probably still do. Now I consume much of my social media in the form of RSS feeds, even took the time to add all of my YouTube subscriptions to a RSS feed reader and unsubscribed from channels that I felt were too clickbaity, don't get me wrong there are a few I still follow.
This is great. I seem to be less into social media since Twitter died and Reddit became whatever the heck it is now. I do occasionally go back there but it feels weird. I feel disconnected from it. I can see people still using it, but there's a pall over everything, a frost. Lemmy on the other hand may not be as active, but its smaller community feels more personal.
What news communities or instances are you a part of? Always trying to find new ones.
World News at Lemmy.world and WorldNews@Lemmy.ml are the two I consume the most of.
