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.

    yeah, it’s very difficult. even in google searches, the links come up and I then realize how much I depend on reddit for google searches.

      I’ve been testing out other search engines and have currently landed on Brave Search. Every single time you search, there’s a big block of threads from reddit near the top of the search results. It’s not been easy to stay away.
