Reddit

Yep and I haven't missed it.

I did! I only end up back there if I'm searching for something like a tech problem and reddit is the only place my particular issue was discussed.

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.

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

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 haven't posted or commented on Reddit since over a month, but I haven't deleted my account yet. I have consulted Reddit a few times since, notably when it showed up in the results for a question I was looking up, or to see the posts from the r/Askhistorians weekly roundup (of which I follow the RSS feed). While the way I've been using Reddit lately doesn't require an account, I'm unsure of whether I intend to delete mine; partly because if for whatever reason, I needed to post a question somewherebit will get a big audience, that's the biggest I can currently get, and partly because I don't want all my great posts and comments of the past to be lost to history...

I'm trying right now. Just signed up n got approved.

My reddit account got soft locked over a year ago making me re-evaluate my relation with social media. I never bothered to reset my password as i could still lurk where i was previously logged in. The app-ocalypse meant i would have needed to get it fixed so i moved to lemmy instead and never looked back.

I left Reddit for good. Aside from the garbage spez pulled, I can’t use the site without Apollo.

I use both but my Reddit usage is down. There are communities there that don’t have a replacement here yet

Instead of using Reddit's site, I opted to use Libdirect which redirects you to privacy respecting front-ends instead of Reddit's website. It's kinda handy once you figure out some instances, the downside is that some instances are down and you need to take the time pinging those instances if they are working.

Here's the current use-case for me: I'll type reddit.com/r/privacy on my browser but then the extension will find the working instance you set and will completely redirect you to https://l.opnxng.com/r/privacy.

The only problem for this one is that you can't really comment to those questionable takes on r/unpopularopinion lol

Fuck Reddit!!!

We need so someone that can count all the "I did" messages and use that as a crappy metric lol.

I use Lemmy to browse, and Reddit for search. E.g. If I want to checkout general online stuff people are discussing/sharing this is the place. If I want to look up frying pan recommendations I google "reddit le creuset"

i only use Reddit for technical questions on communities that don't exist on Lemmy or are inactive. I'm not using Reddit anymore for browsing but I'm not gonna artificially limit myself from that great resource for some performative activism

Infinity for Reddit no longer refreshes content so I guess that's it for me. I'm not using the first party app. I hope one day these sites and services see that this type of shit is like paywalling a news site. It just makes a large percentage of the userbase leave and degrades the ultimate relevance of the site.
