Up until a few months ago I was really heavy on reddit and twitter. Now I use lemmy and threads. I will say that since both apps are a lot less active than what they replaced, I am on social media for considerably less of my day. Paradoxically, I am much more active on social media than before I made the switch.

Waiting for Sync
I haven't been on since the 10th and I was on it near constantly before that. If reddit sync isn't going to be around 10 days from now then I have no plans to use the site anything like I used to. I literally have no desire to learn their crappy app and lose the curated experience I had set up for myself. The only redditing I plan for the future is googling for specific questions in niche communities.
I started using Lemmy/Jerboa two days ago and have been able to navigate to communities outside of my instance while staying in the app. Maybe it was a recent update?
I agree about the missing quality of life around comments and the inbox, but in what way is subbing to communities from other instances difficult? I've just been typing keywords into the search bar and have had no issue subscribing to any communities, no matter what instanc they are hosted on.
I've been a fan of Mr. Bungle for a long time and always meant to check out Faith No More.
