    I just checked reddark over 8400 subreddits are down, pretty much all of the big ones are closed down, that’s crazy! I only had one reddit brain fart today and caught myself before, so I have no idea how things are there, but I do miss all the nature, castles and sculptures pictures from the stuff I followed.

      I swapped my Sync app on my homescreen out for Jebroa for Lemmy, so when I instinctively go to open Reddit, I open Lemmy instead. Seems to be working well so far!

        Yeah, the problem is my phone has that predictive/sugestion bar at the bottom when you open the search bar and more often than not boost is there and my brain goes “oooh, click it!” and im very bad at deleting apps, my way around hoarding apps was restricting the apps i install in the first place. But i opened Jerboa enough last night that its showing is right beside it and I’m keeping Lemmy logged in on the browser.
