I didn’t stop using Reddit but I use it much less now, and I seldom post anymore. I’ve noticed a significant drop in quality; lots of good posters and mods left.
I'm only now switched over because infinity for reddit free finally died
Without RiF, there is no Reddit for me.
I almost left reddit years ago after one of their constant BS things but the API one was the last straw. They lost 4 relatively active accounts when I left. It has been great watching the communities on the fediverse grow.
The last sub I used a bunch was r/traa. I really had no reason to go back to Reddit once it shut down.
Now we have c/traa on Hexbear
I kept Infinity installed until it finally stopped working. In the last few weeks, there was basically nothing good on Reddit anyway so I'm ok with dropping it.
I'm hoping more people come to Lemmy and we get lots of content here!
Maybe make a poll?
I was a part of the chapo exodus and found myself just going to the hexbear instead of the reddit to the point that I just pop into reddit like once or twice a year.
I use a mix myself. I browse lemmy on mobile with Voyager, and Reddit on PC. Now if lemmy had active communities for my personal interests I’d be more interested, but it’s mostly generic news and such right now
I did so that's at least one.
I quit when Joey for Reddit finally got taken down.
Honestly, the people here seem kinder and more intelligent, even if I don't agree with what they're saying.
For general memes and doom scrolling I'm 100% on Lemmy. Content is somewhat sparse but that just helps me limit scrolling time. I purged my post history so my profile is blank.
I still sometimes use Reddit from Google searches to look up specific things or specific communities. When I make the mistake of clicking the home feed the default experience is so bad that I pretty much immediately close it.
Full adoption is still lacking due to the breadth of niche communities and information that is tied up on Reddit. Is there any reddit archival efforts to preserve the information?
I thought this was going to be more of polling post.
Anyway I did. I deleted my account and haven't gone back for anything since then. It's rough too cause now there's no connection to the local groups here.
I joined a local instance hoping there would be local people posting but I guess that's not how lemmy works.
not enough
🙋
I did. signed out of all Reddit accounts once on my PC and uninstalled Apollo when it was on life support once Spez started outwardly idolizing Elon Musk. Fuck that shit I’m out
Now I only use Reddit wherever I need tech support and google has something for me that I need. I also installed Reddit to redirect extension to the wayback machine it I go there
I've been almost exclusively on Lemmy, but even after several months still miss user content on some of the more niche communities like my local sports team subreddit. I'll still hold out for a bit longer, if only to see what else is out there, but the itch is real.
Dropped it and haven't looked back.
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 did.
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 dropped reddit and I don't really use lemmy that much either
Me
I maintain my account for reference, but rarely visit unless I'm searching for something unavailable here. All my interactions take place here.
I did for Lemmy + Tildes + a bit of Hackernews.
I haven't loved back in since Sync for reddit stored working.
I did. Barring search results.
Me!
