Actually I feel excited, because Lemmy has sparked a new interest in news aggregators and the fediverse and I'm enjoying my time here a lot.

I agree, it feels a bit like the internet in the early days, where you can find mindblowing new things just around the corner with a single click
Exactly! And without being called names for asking questions or interacting with people.
I joined Reddit during the digg exodus. Before digg I was into fark and before fark, something awful.
It's good that things die. it's where new mediums come from. It also keeps the power with the user. It's an important part of the internet life cycle.
A little bit. What I hate is losing the communities related to my hobbies. Reddit is/was very very helpful for me. Finding new music, finding new games, discussing movies and TV, learning about weird movies or cult shows, sharing my stuff to people that find it cool... It was 11 years of that. I needed that site, so many very helpful posts. I hope whatever comes next is better. For now I'm here, waiting to see what happens.
I'm permanently suspended anyway, there's no way back. They somehow find me if I create a new account lol
