Reddit

There are dozens of us.

In all seriousness, I do occasionally visit select subreddits even though I no longer have an account. I'd like to think leaving reddit has changed my internet browsing habits in a good way.

Got suspended with no explanation from a heavily used professional sub...asked for an explanation and was banned/ suspended (2 different accounts) Appealed ban, ask for explanation...nothing, just more ban/suspensions. ....deleted 2 accounts, ridiculous.

I'm pretty much done with it. I do the occasional search for piracy content with a search engine but other than that I get my fill of internet surfing elsewhere.

I guess you could look at how many users Lemmy added during the drama, most likely near 100% of those were Reddit refugee. I did switch when it became clear reddit overall was getting too shitty, too big & corporate.

I'm about 1% as active on Reddit as I used to be. I unsubbed from most of the subreddits I used to follow. I only stick around for a few communities that haven't moved to other platforms, but I make an effort to not comment or post nearly as often as before.

Crazy what happens when you kill the tool that 99% of my use of your platform was done through, huh, Spez?

I left as soon as the news dropped, didn't wait for it to happen.

I'm one, but Lemmy doesn't have it. Idk if it is the hot or top algorithm, the development of mature communities, or moderation of the communities, but Lemmy doesn't engage me like Reddit does. I moved on from reddit, but Lemmy is much less engaging.

Fuck em.

Deleted my two main accounts and I think 3 alts that I could still remember, and haven't been back since. I can't use social media without Sync.

The only thing I go on Reddit for now at the moment is to browse their comic sub once every now and then.

But that's not completely dropping Reddit. Because Lemmy/Kbin is still in its early stages there'll be a lot of people who spend most of their time here but occasionally go to Reddit for that one sub or for some particular thing that's not quite made it here yet.

Me! Admittedly I still do use Reddit occasionally for particularity niche subreddits but I do enjoy Lemmy a lot more!

Used a script to delete all my comments. Nuked two ten year old accounts.

Commenting for sake of a headcount lol

I'm no expert but best guess would be to get an estimate of all the new Lemmy users - there seem to be a few floating around - then run a poll in a few instances and estimate based on those results.

I dropped reddit years ago. I'm currently on lemmy. So I didn't drop reddit for lemmy, but I did used to use reddit and am now a user here.

I've tried many of the alternatives but most of them were ended up pretty bad. Lemmy shows promise but is pretty reddit-y and I think over time it's basically going to become a big circle-jerk just like reddit. It's decent-ish for now though.
