More fun and hobby related stuff. Lemmy is depressing and hateful AF. Feels like most of the people here are afflicted by "Politics as a Personality". At least on Reddit it is pretty easy to avoid that by only subbing to hobby subs but most of those are dead on Lemmy. I switched to using mostly Reddit on my PC again and just using Lemmy on my phone since there is no good mobile reddit app anymore.

For me, Redreader definitely counts as a good reddit app...

Never heard of it. Surprised there are any apps still going after the API pricing change.

More entertainment, whether the content is original or not.

What I miss from reddit are the funny videos, memes, the crème de la crème of tiktok and youtube. It doesn't have to be original, it has to be high quality and entertaining or insightful. I miss the old r/videos before it got split into r/videos and r/publicfreakout.

Not always, but most of the time when I come back home, I want to turn off my brain, laugh and be entertained at random shit. I don't want to see random political debate, outrage, etc...
