    I would imagine a high proportion of people so easy to leave Reddit found it easy because they remember leaving digg.

    Anyone younger than that are just bloody sensible

      I only joined Reddit five years ago. Leaving Reddit turned out to be pretty easy because I had other things to occupy my time with. I have a feeling that it’s because I was never that attached to reddit to begin with.

        I can relate to this. I think I’ve been on Reddit for about 6 years. I probably had a bit of an addiction but I used to be pretty serious into forums and I have already learned how to disconnect from internet communities more than a decade ago.

          Should note that the ‘addiction’ part was only fueled by my favorite third party app “Joey”.

      Some of us are old enough to remember when social media sites that were “too big to die” died. We’ve been burned before, so we’re making plans before that happens.
