I have only been gone from reddit for just over 6 months. Today I made the mistake of browsing it, there is so much misinformation, noise, and hate. After scrolling for about 10 minutes I realized that I hadn’t seen anything of substance that I hadn’t already seen on Lemmy
I really don’t feel like I’m missing anything by leaving reddit

The only thing I miss is my current cities sub.
The rest of it is the same thing every day
I don’t know if it’s just me but last time I browsed Reddit or Facebook they just gave me a bunch of unhinged right-wing phobic bullshit.
I dunno if it’s because my privacy skews their data on me or if they’re just trying to feed me misinformation but either way fuck these companies.
I quit Facebook all the way back in 2015 with similar results
Leaving Reddit gave me similar mental health relief as it did when I left Facebook
It’s so bad now that the default client is king and now that a lot of the good super users bailed.
The content and the algo that sorts it is terrible.
