I only use it once a week on a specific niche subreddit that hasn't migrated elsewhere. I may very occasionally browse a post or two if I'm bored, but I don't comment on or upvote anything outside that one niche subreddit. So I haven't 100% stopped using it, but my usage has dropped by a lot.

My app worked as I was mod of my own sub. Few weeks ago that stopped working, and I haven't opened reddit since

I actually caved in and remade a reddit acccount, yeah i feel dirty about it but i really mised the most niche comunities, specially the monster hunter one since the one thats here is more inactive than active. Though interactions are pretty terrible since the first coments i posted got downvoted and now im on negative karma and anytime i try to comment after that i get ignored. I think that account was shadowbanned so ill probably delete it and make a new one, but is not that important since i like to lurk more than interact with reddit since the discourse there is becoming more 4chany but without the with and censored af.

I will also mention that i made second one strictly for nsfw browsing on reddit, since the nsfw comunities on lemmi are surprisingly prudish on certain fetishes. Now im not into the most extreme shit but i really dont like that they dont allow certain stuff thats perfectly legal on the normal nsfw instances, like CNC is just a form of roleplay, why is it banned? But trans and femboy shit isnt with their whole penis chastity cages, they have plentyfull suply of that. Im not into neither of those fetishes and i dont kinkshame the lgbtq shit, but the only option to see shit thats not allowed (like cnc) would be to go to the extreme nsfw instances that thend to host legaly dubius shit like straight up real rapes and other stuff of the same variety that i rather not mention, and nobody whants to see that nor be exposed to it, so i rather go to reddit for porn, at least they dont kinkshame and i wouldnt be in danger of being put on a watch list.

I did.

My wife dropped Reddit but never adopted Lemmy, despite my attempts lol.

I mostly moved. There's one sub I still frequent because of the community there. And often I find answers to tech questions there, and take part in those discussions.

I mostly dropped reddit for the fun bullshit I used to enjoy. But Lemmy hasn't replaced that fun. Lemmy is kinda self righteous and squeamish, obsessed with defederating and bitching about tankies. I need to find a new home.

I’m out of there for good, but I take a look every once in awhile. That place still looks like it’s thriving. It’s unfortunate.

At this point, only on mobile, really tbh. Usability is... It's a time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Reddit is PC only using the old site. But I've been using it much less now despite most of my usage was on PC already. I much prefer Lemmy on my PC and Summit on mobile now.

I did at first but I'm using Reddit again alongside this because Lemmy is kind of depressing/exhausting, and also doesn't have a lot of the content I want. Namely firearms and motorcycle stuff, along with lots of food related subs.

Be the change you want to see!

I did mostly. But when I really need reddit for something, I use a libreddit instance I set up on my raspberry pi.

But my Reddit-Account still exists.

Both. I use the connect app to browse lemmy while on my phone and when I'm on my computer I go on Reddit with ad blocker.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I currently use both. I want to make the switch but I mostly use Reddit for destiny 2 and haven't been able to find the community here for that.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm gonna say it's at least three

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I check in on reddit every once in a while via the app called Comet. It's definitely gone back to it's usual self but it feels more impersonal than ever now that I use Lemmy too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

There's a few communities I still check in on occasionally, which haven't moved to Lemmy yet, but I've mostly shifted to Lemmy. Hopefully Lemmy grows, & more of those old places move here. I'll keep using & supporting this platform, in the meantime.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I check both Reddit and Kbin, have both of them open in pinned tabs.

But I spend a whole lot less time on Reddit than I used to.

And it's not like I now spend the less time I spend there on Kbin either, I'm just mostly beyond browsing it obsessively and do other crap instead.

Same with Twitter.

After I quit Twitter and moved to Mastodon, I do read my feed once or so a day, but compared to a year ago, I barely participate anymore.

I have not fully dropped lemmy but I still use it to check out the latest (tech and tech related) news. Lemmy is good at that aspect these days.
