Reddit

I did as soon as Sync came out.

I didn't fully drop Reddit but I use it significantly less.

Dropped Reddit since the beginning of the protest waves. But most importantly, due to this, my screen time plummeted from 10h per day to 2 or 3 hours.

I did.

I'm still not entirely sure what Lemmy is, but I mostly quit reddit and moved to hexbear when reddit banned /r/chapotraphouse. I still went on reddit to check local COVID stats but since Biden said and the CDC stopped tracking, there's no reason to go back.

I've deleted all my reddit accounts and haven't added any new content to reddit since I switched, Though I must admit I still end up there from time to time when I search for specific things.. mostly related to niche topics. I use Lemmy for mindless browsing, news, laughs, etc.

I was a sync user. Waited until the last day. Been quite until recently. I think I've had more conversations here then in my four years with Reddit. Something about the sizes of the communities made it hard to feel like a part of the conversation.

I did. Fuck reddit.

left reddit completely and found a replacement for every community I am interested in. i love lemmy

I've stopped using it on mobile entirely, but still use Reddit for some communities like r/bash and the like, or otherwise things related to my job -- though, only on desktop.

That said, I'd like to fully move off of the platform eventually.

I refuse to use their shitty app, but I still use old reddit on the desktop. If they remove old.reddit.com, I will probably not use it at all.

On mobile, I tried a few apps. Lemmy feels very empty and devoid of content and communities. Mastodon is not that interesting. I feel that hacker news is the best alternative right now. Even though it doesn't have that many users, the fact that it has a single "community" helps it feel far less empty, and more focused towards technical people.

I did. And I did it exclusively because of reddit sync. I used that app to browse reddit during my decade plus old account. Once reddit sync left, the app maker said he's moving to lemmy. I never even heard of lemmy until then. Now I'm here on sync.

I left and haven't looked back. Honestly with the consistent growth of lemmy there's been now need.

Left reddit after 13 years, never looked back. Fuck Reddit

I started my own instance and haven't touched Reddit since, except sometimes as search results. But I don't browse, login, etc.

First tried Lemmy during the blackouts, never went back to reddit after Boost stopped working

I switched.

I left reddit for good. I will not knowingly enhance reddits traffic stats on principle for the crap spez pulled. Everyone should do the same.

Present ✋

I only go back when a site like this or /v/ links me back.

I sure did. I was already tired of their terrible moderation policies and the arbitrary power some mods abused all to hell. Good riddance.

I only looked at Reddit on Sync so when that stopped working I stopped visiting Reddit. Now I look at Lemmy on Sync but not as much

I did. Occasionally visit old.reddit.com put of nostalgia, but never logged in, never controbute. It's not as busy here, but i like it. Lemmy has an OG nerd feeling to it.

I dropped mobile reddit for Lemmy. I still use reddit on my PC, but never on my mobile devices.

I haven't participated on Reddit since leaving for Lemmy, and I've barely participated on blahaj since leaving for hexbear

I used infinity for reddit app to surf reddit, when they started charging for api, app become unusable then i switched to eternity for lemmy and i love it

There are some communities that never transitioned to Lemmy, so I'll be using them untill old.reddit is disabled.

Still using reddit read-only through Libreddit but I don't even check it every day anymore.

I hit up my niche self-hosted and Linux subs, take a peek at /r/all, get immediately put off by all the bot content and toxicity, and come right back to Lemmy.

Deleted my reddit account a while ago. Don't really use lemmy as much as I used to use reddit, but I see that as a good thing. the quality of the use I get is a lot better here too.

I only used baconreader, and so did my wife. So no more reddit for us.

I dropped reddit for sure, but can't say I'm exactly an avid Lemmy user. There just isn't enough things I'm interested in. I pop in every once in a while but I'll probably drop this too soon. I have absolutely no idea how I will even get any news, since I don't watch tv, and that kinda scares me. On the other hand, I started reading books again, which I hadn't touched ever since I became a redditor

If "dropped Reddit for Hexbear" means getting perma-banned from Reddit, then sure.

Edit: No, it's not because I did anything cool. I actually don't know and nobody from the corp responded to why my inactive account got zapped
