No Stupid Questions

Definitely me, haven't opened reddit since the protest.

I only use reddit when looking at the current blackout and api situation. I am also sharing the word of lemmy and the fediverse to users who don't know what it is. But i no longer browse trough reddit, only on lemmy. Nore specificslly the jerboa app on Android.

I prefer the term immigrant now.

Went basically cold turkey on Reddit before the blackout, switching over to Kbin.
I know Reddit will survive, at least for the next while, but after witnessing Reddit's behaviour through all of this, I refuse to be a part of it.

My only use of Reddit will be for Google results, and that will be reading only with an Ad blocked - they won't make a penny off of me anymore if I can help it.

Same, replaced RIF with Jerboa in my home screen. I do miss few communities but I think is only matter of time.

It won't be the same, but I like the idea of it a lot more than Reddit right now. Some questions for everyone...

**5-10 years down the road, what's to stop another Digg-Reddit-exodus from happening? As users, what can we do to keep this community prosperous, useful, and "good"? **

I'd use Lemmy more if half the content wasn't about Reddit.

I'm on kbin but I've barely been on reddit at all since I switched. I'm enjoying watching the fediverse grow and begin to mature into the begining of a real threat to major social media monsters like reddit, twitter, Facebook, and others.

First thing I did was uninstall Relay.

Then logged off reddit on the desktop.

Put Jerboa on the same home screen spot where Relay was.

After a few days deleted my reddit account. Wasn't much of a commenter so just a simple delete for me.

I don't really enjoy Jerboa so whenever I reach for that spot I just remind myself to go to firefox on my phone and go on kbin or lemmy.

I used reddit mostly for doom scrolling and getting frustrated at world news and politics I cannot really influence. So the switch for me was kinda easy and after 12 years I really enjoy something new. I'm also fairly into technology and I am really fascinated by the concept of federation and I really hope it will be popular. I also hope that not all of reddit will move here, because I feel that reddit became huge and you got a sense of emptiness and hopelessness while browsing over there. If that makes any sense.

I just just visit reddit to read r/ModCoord, r/RedditAlternatives and related. I am visiting Lemmy daily but honestly I am still expecting to see more content. I am trying to colaborste summiting some things, something I never do in Reddit.

I haven’t been back. Creddit can get fucked. Apollo deserved better.

In saying that, I have missed the abundance of content. In saying that, Lemmy has grown in order of magnitudes since I got here a few weeks ago. And after the June 30 API cut, I think this place will jump in users.

I've been here since the 10th, deleted my Reddit account yesterday.

I was only lurking on reddit. Here I'm trying to help make the place feel alive by also commenting and engaging. So far I'm really enjoying the experience and I'm not looking back. Also yes, I feel like I do spend a bit more time on lemmy, but it might just be the novelty.

Using lemmy most of the time since the blackout. Kinda hard not to feel guilty now when I scrolled aimlessly on reddit. Now I only go there to find specific things. But ngl really miss having moment of discovery when I stumbled upon something while I browse reddit, since the amount of content here is limited.

Yes, since yesterday I replaced Sync Pro on my screen with Jerboa, so I click it dozens of times per day. Today I haven't go on Reddit once.

I've abandoned Reddit ever since a couple days before the blackout and it's been really nice. It feels refreshing to be part of what seems to be an upcoming community.

I deleted the acc. Not because what was happening, I think I started to dislike it before. This latest developments just gave me the last push to do it. Lemmy is fun, kind of innocent still.

I spend all my time here now, I actually uninstalled reddit and blocked it at the router, removed the want of using it tremendously

Haven't been on reddit since this started. Deleted my account and wont be back

I bailed off of Reddit three months ago, after /r/Pathfinder2e started reaching peak echo chamber.

My Kbin account has been seeing quite a bit of usage today if that counts.

I'm a mix of a few of the alternatives. Squabbles is currently my favorite, but I'm liking a bit of Lemmy, too!

I'm on reddit some, but less and less.

My reddit usage has dropped steadily over the past week, starting with ~50% on day 1 and now almost 90%.

There's a few things I read on reddit, mostly related to its downfall (Apollo apps post yesterday), but otherwise it's this or doing something entirely different.

It's been a real struggle breaking the decade long habit of just opening reddit every time im bored, but I'm trying to ween myself off in preparation for when they kill 3rd party apps at the end of the month since i won't be able to use RIF any longer.

I would say im spending about 80% of my time on kbin now. After the 3rd party app shutdown i'll probably only use reddit when it comes up in top google search results.

Had to block reddit for a bit and replace my shortcuts to reddit with lemmy, but now I find myself enjoying my time on lemmy a lot more than on reddit. I don't know if I will ever stop using reddit due to the amount of old information over that is still very useful and because it's where most of my viewers come from, but only time will tell I guess.

I've got kbin installed as a PWA in the same spot that I had Sync for Reddit. That takes care of the muscle memory thing. The only reason I look at Reddit these days is to see how the shitshow is going.

I just made my account, figuring out how to use the app.

I purposely have started spending more time on Lemmy. After the recent drama I decided that I didn’t want to give Reddit any more of my time and have stopped using the site completely. Not sure Lemmy will be the successor, but its not to bad although mobile ui is worse than the reddit app.

Since they confirmed that won't change their mind about the API changes, I uninstalled infinity and I only spend time here. So far has been great!

Used to binge Reddit all day everyday. Now it’s Lemmy/Kbin instead and haven’t even thought going back to Reddit.

I check lemmy a few times per day, reddit now a few times per week, and only the few subreddits that have no good alternatives yet.

i was on reddit for 10 years. i've just started taking up lemmy and the 'fediverse'. hoping this can at least partially supplant the things i use reddit for. it's going to take time to build up the userbase/collective information reddit has built up, so i am going to try and be more active on this platform than i'd otherwise be to start building on this platform. my hope is federated content sharing can be an endpoint that will be sturdier against the kind of market and social fluctuations that are ruining reddit. 'fediverse' is a dumb name tho, not crazy about that.

My only traffic to Reddit in over a week was search based. My only engagement was here and Facebook.

I miss Relay something awful. The mobile lemmy site has some strong inconveniences, the mobile app is missing some outright features.

I'd still rather be here than there.

As for me I'm living here now. Just taking a few peeks at reddit to follow the whole api/blackout situation.

This is the first post on my new account 👍
