I occasionally poke my head in to see if it's dead yet, but other than that no.

I purged my comments and deleted my main account on July 1st, which was surprisingly emotional for me. I use Alien Blue on mobile, which still works so far, but now that my main account is logged out, I'll never be able to log another account in because authentication has been broken in Alien Blue for a while.
I'm keeping Alien Blue installed for two reasons: one, for checking on a friend who only posts updates on reddit, and two, I read r/games a couple times a week for headlines and discussion. Lemmy just doesn't have the same level of engagement or discussion as r/games; even though there's a certain brand of insufferable commenters there, the majority of people post thoughtful comments that are more than one or two sentences long and those are the kinds of threads I like reading. Lemmy threads seem to be more shallow; lots of replies to the parent, but very few threads that go more than one or two comments deep.
Why is this pinned? And which apps let you block instances wholesale?
I unsubbed from all reddits that don't support the resistance except for a few small ones. And I go to lemmy for most things
Fuck no
Reddit is my place to check on news about the ongoing war. For some reason it wasn't banned in r*ssia and is availiable without vpns. Lots of exiles from other places joined subreddits there.
I don't feel like this blogosphere would move into fediverse. Occasionally, reddit became the right place for this.
I do. I have a personal libreddit instance on a vps tho, so no login, no update, no comments, no ads. Basically no touch, only watch π
Not completely, there are still some niche, non-technical communities that are probably never going to switch. I hope at some point they do, but still go once in a while to check. I donβt go daily like I used to, mostly do lemmy daily since the apps are getting so good now.
About once or twice a week max. And only because infinity for reddit still works. Nothing much there really. Lemmy actually has been more fun. Just the apps are still a hit or miss
I was a joey user. But already had my lemme already set up for this day. I might use reddit just to track the events of the Ukraine war and some stable diffusion stuff. But most of that discord and telegram can be used instead.
Maybe occasionally subredditdrama to see the meltdowns happening. For now I'm trying to see which lemmy app I like best. Right now connect seems to be the one I am using most.
I left Reddit in early 2022 and never looked back.
.
Nope, and I even stop searching for episode discussions on TV shows because most of it is on reddit.
Of course I do. It's reddit.
Still using it with Apollo cause the Apps for lemmy are sadly still leagues behind Apollos UX. Also my fav subs/communityβs (eg. HFY) or rather their content is still absent from here. But I am hopeful that in the future that will change.
Yes, but I've realised that I go in less and less.
i just check it twice a week
Nope. I quit cold turkey on June 30 and haven't been back. Well, not on purpose, at least. Sometimes a Google result sends me to Reddit, but when it loads I just close it and move to the next result. Lemmy works fine for everything I used Reddit for.
