I went searching for something today and instinctually clicked on a reddit link. Fortunately the sub was dark for the protest anyway, but it’s crazy how ingrained in me it is to go to reddit for everything.

Unfortunately now we’re going to have to get used to clicking on those clickbait tech articles like “TOP 10 FACEBOOK ALTERNATIVES 2023” to find information, and weed out the crappy blogs.

    Muscle memory is also hard to break. I had to remove Apollo from my homescreen :D

      I know the feeling. I had to put it in a folder “Do not use”. It’s like the first rhing I check in the morning. This lemmy thing has potential. I miss Apollo so much though. Jesus if Christian ported Apollo to use a lemmy backend I’m not sure I’d even notice it wasn’t Reddit. 😀

      I made a shortcut automation in iOS to close Apollo as soon as it’s opened. Works & has caught me in my habit a few times already. lmao

      I also had to remove it from the Home Screen. The lemmy iOS app in TestFlight Mlem is actually pretty good.
