I find that a lot of those who abandon reddit forever tend to do so pretty hastily. It's not like all of reddit is toxic or heavily mandated. You can always dig deeper into the calmer cleaner subreddits that still satisfy your interests minus the drama. So it's not like it's a sin to enjoy any of reddit anymore. Complete abandonment feels like throwing the baby out with the bathwater to me.
Unless what you've been enjoying from reddit is participating in or encouraging active harmful behaviour that causes negative externalities, in which case you're part of the problem.
I take my bits and pieces from reddit and Snapzu, along with several other platforms. They each have their strengths and unique perspectives that you can synthesise to form more encompassing perspectives on issues, along with their own original content/discussions to provide for a diverse range of flavours of entertainment.
So it's fine if you can't abandon reddit because you don't need to. Take what you can and want from it, and do the same for Snapzu. Or whatever platforms you find yourself involved in, even if it's just lurking.

Agreed that reddit can be a cesspool but it all depends on how you use it.
