Such is life, nothing lasts forever. I could think of a good song for this, but nothing comes to mind yet as Im enjoying watching that Twitch counter of closed subreddits counting up nonstop.

Slashdot -> kuro5hin -> reddit -> Lemmy for me.
Any old k5ers on here?

That's funny because I've seen some people on Reddit say they're going to use Fark instead after the controversy. I guess old sites just don't die.
I still visit Slashdot pretty regularly, but I make it a point to avoid the comments section.
I'd need to shoehorn the Something Awful forums in there somewhere between Fark and Digg.

Put BBS discussion boards, FidoNet groups, and Usenet out front and drop Fark for my path. Along with a variety of standalone forums and random stuff that never went anywhere, of course :) (yes, I'm old!)

Finally more people moving to fediverse
Fark eh. I used to have a double digit account number of there. Those were the days.
I kind of skipped Fark entirely, but other than that, yeah that was my route here.
Pretty similar for me, but I never did Fark. Funnily enough after digg was sold and relaunched I started using the new digg pretty regularly. It isn't old digg, but it does find and aggregate decent news and entertainment links.
