Popped over to the other place via a search and there seems to be a lot of different people in the DT. There are a few regulars I wish had come over here and some have disappeared. That sucks.
It’s a lot quieter here which can be frustrating but at the same time it feels a bit less toxic.
All in all it’s a nice spot.
I usually have both places open in different tabs and flick between the two throughout the day because, as you say, it's a lot quieter here than the old DT used to be. It's quieter there too now as well. I miss some of the old regs.
The Reddit DT is pretty quiet these days too. Todays DT thread here has about 20 more posts than the reddit one currently
Gone are the days of 1000 comments by 4 pm
I very occasionally look at the other DT but not much anymore and I finally unsubbed from the Melbourne reddit but I still use it for other communities that didn't migrate.
Maybe just a slow day here again.
yeah it's not good if you want to waste a day just random thread browsing, but a very good chill discussion vibe (not just this comm, also in several others I'm on like the ST one)
Same. I miss Lister. I hope she’s ok.
And Waddles. Epic still seems to be there.
And Whacka - did they make it over here?
Yes, Waddles and her tea collection!
I think at some point she had tea inside a dried orange (pu'er tea)
