I never liked Reddit. I used to only use it for an hour or less a day to follow tech and IT communities.
But now, after the blackout, I can't leave Lemmy. I'm on it about 5-6 hours a day to find communities, read news about Reddit blackout and Lemmy's future. I think going back to Reddit will be good for me. It will take less of my time, especially after a lot of people quit Reddit.
Edit: Thank you for your nice answers and advice. I think all the good people of Reddit are here at Lemmy and kbin.
I think the fact you use it more than you would expect is expectable with the fact it's new to you and the blackout is still going for half of the subreddits, looking at the stream - that's captivating. Also Reddit already has estabilished communities while here is the Wild West, revolution is... revolving. We're here for it.
But never think you're missing out, whether you'll spend here 5 minutes or hours. In the end does it really matter you know what Reddit CEO said this morning? And this platform is decentralised and open source, whatever wouldn't happen there will always be an instance.
If you feel too distracted by this place (don't blame you, I've just joined and I'm like wow) and you feel that it will be better for you, feel free to look at Reddit
...but maybe actually take a break from both. while exciting, social media can be a bit stressful and if you feel like you could be doing something productive, dedicate your time to that. if you just want to waste your time a bit, maybe try sketching or a little code - it feels good to create something
