Lost a lot of my hobby subs and spend more time posting political crap now.

    Same. My reddit feed was well curated with small hobby and humor subs specific to my interests. Without the cesspool of "default" subs it was actually a nice place, and if the official mobile app wasnt a pile of shit I'd still be there despite all the other fuckery going on with it.

    Without my highly curated subs list I made to avoid propaganda, outrage, and cringebait (subs devoted to make you cringe or laugh at people, idk what to call it) I'm kinda stuck with /196 and a bunch of stuff I don't care about. Anyway, I too have been sucked into political crap and I'm over it.

    Tonight I put in a some keyword filters to cut out the Israel-Palestine War, and stuff. So there's that.

    I miss all my cool art subs, mental health subs, and media subs so much.

    I'm with you. I had reddit tuned to make me feel better. I saw cute animals and silly memes, cool niche hobbies, active small communities. Here it's almost entirely doom and gloom. Fighting and arguing. Unfunny, serious memes.

    Makes me very glad I found a friendly discord community to be in.

    Yeah that's what i discovered too (atleast on lemmy world). Its gotten to the point where i moved back to reddit because im too old to engross myself with politics and hate 24/7. After the constant DDOS attacks all my niche subs i followed died and the rest are just posts ripped from Reddit.
