Gods, I do not miss the dumbass circle jerk comments from Reddit. “I also choose this guy’s wife”. Just. Go away. Blech.

I see them very very rarely here, but they’re easy enough to ignore because it’s maybe one comment, not 900

My reddit account age was in the double digits before I closed it down to come here during the 3rd party apps/api fiasco.

It was a little difficult at first, but honestly it was really good for me to break away from so much phone usage and doom scrolling especially. My mental health improved a noticable amount. That first year or so here on Lemmy felt a little empty, but I think a lot of the people that migrated from Reddit realized that to have content one must make content. Personally, I’m far far more active here than I ever was on Reddit.

It’s a cozy community 90% of the time, and it feels like a good home that’s only getting better and richer with time.

She is my Ducky and I am her little Crow.

But in general we are Darling to one another

I’m sorry for the break, but those are cute

Awh that’s cute

Hi parent! It’s me, your long lost child. Can you give me our home address so I can be there this weekend?

I broke several cycles in my family. I didn’t fall back into the cycle of being poor. Nor did I fall back into a cycle of abuse.

I struggle every day with mental grossness, still, but I won’t let myself fall down into the same cycles.
