I would say since there isn’t a singular instance we can see these posts from, instead of being Lemmings/Kbinners/whatever, we call ourselves “Federales” due to the federated nature of the servers.
I quit on the 8th when Apollo formally announced its shutdown.
I will say that since KBin has a lot less content, I have been spending more time reading books in my backlog and generally being more productive, so quitting Reddit has been a net positive in my life.
However, there are still times I click on Reddit links from Google. Old habits.
Washingtonian here; I just prefer to pump it myself. I don’t have to wait for someone to come over after I’ve been there for 5+ minutes while the attendant services other customers, I don’t have to wait for them to come back after the gas has stopped pumping, and all this waiting time compounds if the station’s busy.
It’s not that I don’t like waiting in general, it’s just that it’s a task that generally doesn’t require waiting in my day-to-day so I find it irksome.
The day Apollo announced it would be shutting down for sure (I believe it was June 8th), that was the day I deleted my 11 year old account as well as any content I had contributed to Reddit.
Unfortunately, I did not have the foresight to anticipate Reddit rolling back deleted comments, so I have no idea if my comment history has since been restored without my permission.

As far as we know, he’s a heeler/border collie mix. Definitely heeler in the face.
