People who still use both Reddit and Lemmy and are slowly leaving Reddit. How do you do it?

I have noticed that I'm very often on Reddit through either Apollo or the website out of mere habit (possibly even addiction). However, I have also noticed that the more I use Reddit, the more I feel agitated by all the negativity and toxicity from the users.

This is pretty much in all subreddits I'm active in. Mostly in piracy and piratedgames, people quarrel over the most trivial things and downvote each other for no reason at all.

Unfortunately, Lemmy has less content than Reddit. Though, I can't call what is on Reddit content anymore.

My experience with reddit is similar to other folks here. I got permbanned in 2024 and then again in 2025, started going on Lemmy but lurked on reddit via third party app Infinity until earlier this year when reddit killed my API key. Since I refuse to use reddits hot garbage ad-riddled app, I uninstalled infinity and never went back.

    i used continum and redlib, but the UI doesnt really jive with me yet. so i use extension on mobile firefox to force it into old reddit, and to make it work properly on a phone. reddit is starting to become aware of this too, as i notice everytime i backspaced, it forces you back to the top of the page.
