God I wish. Then I could wean myself off of there too.
Just do it, you won't regret it. I was in your position in 2021 and genuinely found it difficult to stop using it. Now I don't use it and... I'm glad. Just like Twitter. Life really is better without them.
My main issue is that it can legitmately be the last place some more niche communities gather.

The front page is absolutely never worth interacting with, but those "smaller" communities (and we're still taking 50k-300k subs, larger than many alternatives I've seeked out) I haven't found a substitute for.

Only thing I'm annoyed is that old reddit isn't default for those rare occasions I need to visit it.
AFAIK you can make it the default in your user settings. I haven't seen new reddit for a long time
There's also an add-on at least for Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/old-reddit-re...

I don't like to stay logged into my account so I use this.

Did you switch to other communities or just swear off social media sites altogether? I’d love to just go back to smaller niche sites like the old days.
I starting joking about that like 2 weeks ago and I hope I did not start a self-fulfilling rumor because I would feel very ashamed
