There was nothing to talk about on Reddit anymore. Privacy communities were filled with noob questions answered a billion times, besides I knew what I needed to know at that point. Subs dedicated to cartoons and video games I liked were full of crappy memes because there was only so much content to work with. freegaming subreddit got abandoned, opensourcegames only had new releases and freesoftware started to become stale. I found there was more to talk about on Lemmy despite much smaller userbase so I started to mainly use this platform, then I decided to share content from Reddit to increase content diversity and have more content for others in general.
