I only started using Reddit regularly when I learned of the third party apps, so when they killed that, this is the thing all the other quitters were talking about.

Tried out a few apps and instances. It seemed very slow and quiet, but much nicer as far as the personalities. Was just a lurker at Reddit, so I had nothing to leave behind, so I stayed here.

It's not quite as nice now as during the mass migration, but I've found a nice niche for myself here and I participate much more often than I ever would have at Reddit. There's a decent audience now, but still enough room to find your own voice and to build the type of community you want.
