Initially I too felt like I was missing out on content, but the more time I spent away from Reddit the easier it feels to stay away.
I have accepted that I will not get certain kinds of content and communities, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make for Kbin / Lemmy. And I believe that slowly, eventually we'll have the quality of the communities we had on Reddit. It just takes time.
Yeah, especially these particular QoL changes are pretty dope!
