General usage, Lemmy

Technical usage, Reddit.

We have far better discussions on Lemmy, but there are some really niche communities I follow on Reddit still because there aren't enough interested folks here on Lemmy.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I haven’t touched reddit to browse it since I made my lemmy account. I still wind up there from an occasional search with no other relevant results.

The way lemmy functions is vastly superior to reddit IMO and I have no plans to return.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Pretty much the same here. This scratches the very same itch that reddit did, but has several bonuses on top.

Lemmy, reddit is more active and has more content but Lemmy will get there. The front page is awful now. It's full of ads and suggested crap. I subscribed to things for a reason. I liked seeing posts I cared about. This shoving content down my throat approach curiously made me get off the site sooner.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Reddit definitely has more users and more communities that don't exist here but I prefer lemmy because no ads and no corporation trying to sell my data

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Lemmy is better, but the communities I care the most about and want to give the most to aren't on lemmy, so I don't really have the luxury of using it quite as much as I'd like. I do like it here, though

Lemmy by fucking MILES.

  • no ads
  • no enshittificafion
  • federated ecosystem
  • OSS
  • self-hostable
  • no aggregate karma (so karma farming/selling is completely meaningless)
  • userbase genuinely feels a lot less dumb
  • loads of other things that I’m forgetting/too lazy to fully enumerate right now

lemmy, but I still check reddit after I'm done here

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Still stuck between both, but when I’m on reddit I’m using a sideloaded version of Apollo with my own API key while logged out, so theoretically they can’t actually collect any data.

Reddit is obviously more active, even though a huge chunk of that activity is bots, but I like it here better. My only complaint is that my home page is weird sometimes and doesn’t show posts newer than a day or two.

Is this a trick question

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I deleted 2 Reddit account with over 10M combined karma during the shit show last year. Have never gone back. Lemmy is a million times better, even if I'm missing some of my local communities.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Only lemmy. I visit reddit maybe once a week now

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Lemmy for sure, I love this place so much!

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I like Lemmy more. I visit 4 subs on Reddit, not daily. I think it doesn’t have to be an either/or necessarily. I refuse to use their app. Rip baconreader.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Lemmy, overall. There are things I miss from Reddit but whenever I browse it now it's just so full of advertising.

~~Are you serious? We're on Lemmy.~~

Definitely Reddit.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Reddit was realy god in my local areal, so thats what immissinhg. Lemmy,isnt just there yet. Not many from my area. So yir i like Lemmy for the lack of adds, and for notsellinhg my data

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I prefer Lemmy, but unfortunately it is missing a lot of the communities I liked on Reddit, and there doesn't seem to be as much content. When I'm looking for information on a specific topic I'll still check out Reddit but I haven't logged in since the Reddit drama and don't plan to. I do hope Lemmy gets bigger, though.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Lemmy for good content and discussion. Reddit still has niche fan communities that will probably never migrate over here, but I can always hope.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Mostly on Lemmy with Voyager, and sometimes check Reddit with Libreddit (until it lasts).

Best of both worlds.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Doesnt matter reddit kicked me out, so...

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

By now, Lemmy, hands down. I do sometimes end up on reddit from searching for stuff, and I check every now and then if I got any messages on my old accounts just in case someone wants to reach out, but overall - even without niche communities, Lemmy is just the better experience for me, personally.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Lemmy, teddit and libreddit
