Asklemmy

Now and again I jump on for niche information for my hobbies. But only on desktop, and only on old.reddit.com

I haven't been back on Reddit since shortly before July 1. I enjoy the vibe here right and the novelty of something new hasn't worn off yet.

Some subreddits I was more into like Destiny 2's and Diablo 4 don't seem as busy here so I have a feeling I may need to lurk over there still from time to time.

Haven't been there since the blackout, don't miss it. I've always gone there with desktop browser running uBO so I never did see adds there except for inline stuff once in a while. That's one nice thing about Lemmy, looks exactly the same whether the blocker is on or off.

No

I deleted my 9 year old account once Bacon Reader stopped working for me.

Same here. I'm not actively browsing or looking for information from Reddit, but if it's unavoidable, then so be it. I can't ignore the wealth of information still there.

No. I went cold turkey in mid-June. I logged back in last week to use Power Delete Suite to automatically edit every post and comment I ever made to this and then deleted my account.

I'll still use Reddit read-only and with cookies blocked if I stumble upon (ahahaha) it through a search or something.

Nope,

80% is bot reposts anyway.

I still use reddit but only when Google search results points me to it and via a teddit (alternative frontend) instance so I don't give them a dime with ads nor a visit, but teddit is slowly dying (Error: 429 "Too Many Requests") because they decreased the limit of posts it could load, so you have to switch between instances until it finally loads, but thankfully, a script does that for you automatically (thanks to bezier-curve from Hacker News https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36726442) : https://pastebin.com/zFJ5nb42

Also, to be automatically redirected from reddit to your favorite teddit instance, you could use this extension for Firefox (I'm not using Chrome sorry) : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/reddit-to-teddit-redirect/

To help prevent 429 errors from happening, you can still help by creating more teddit servers! : https://codeberg.org/teddit/teddit

Didn't visit at all since June.

And I don't miss it :)

I use it for two things: checking out protest stuff and checking the only subreddit (it's a small one) that's actually keeping me on Reddit.

I use it to check anime episode discussions, it will probably get worse with time but its the only place I trust to read the comments. Also I still put reddit at the end of the search bar cuz the internet right now is just so full of useless articles about everything

Nope, nothing proprietary on my watch.

Only for the naughty stuff. I've unsubbed from everything on my main account and haven't logged in for ages, but not gone as far as deleting my messages (can't be arsed, tbh). Lemmy's Naughty Stuff For Wankers isn't quite where Reddit's is yet but it's getting up there.

I just recently got around to archiving posts of mine before deleting my account, so I literally have no ties other than those on the Wayback Machine.

Needless to say, I don't go back and I do my absolute best to avoid any and all links from it whenever possible.

Nope.

I open the app out of muscle memory a few times a day, infinity still works somehow, but most of my subs have been closed/dead now anyway so not really.

Yes but way less. Voyager app for Lemmy is dope by the way

I still use it. The HFY community is still on Reddit and I enjoy reading the stories.

The API changes haven't really affected my experience since I always browsed Reddit on my desktop through the browser.

I have always lurked Reddit, I have never made an account. With Lemmy, I contribute instead of lurk as I feel I have a part to play in it's early growth for it to succeed. But that being said, I occasionally check the front page and a few specific subreddits but not quite as frequently since I joined Lemmy.

Oh, and when I do, I use LibReddit to view reddit, so nothing even official.

Occasionally I use reddit to find answers to questions about topics that aren't really available on lemmy

Nope deleted my account 2 days ago

Nah. I’m more casual, and didn’t even need it for specific information. I haven’t been back in weeks. Plus, I really like the more civil environment I’ve found on the instances I’ve joined. Additionally, the users are actually listened to, and the mods/devs are genuinely trying to create a better experience. It’s something I want to be a part of, rather than the dumpster fire of greed, anger, and manipulation that is reddit.

Nope, I actually deleted my Reddit account. I already had low support for Reddit because of the response they gave after the last time there was a Reddit blackout. I had been using Lemmy on and off on my old account on the main instance, so when the recent blackout happened, I gave Reddit one last chance but the way they handled the situation was the last straw for me. I came back to my account on Lemmy and used it until the main Lemmy instance started having server problems due to the influx of users.

Kept using 3rd party apps until they shut down. I personally wouldn't be caught dead on the offical reddit app just on principal. I tried using the desktop site a couple times until I found Lemmy!

The major exception to this is if I look up a question or something and theres an answer on Reddit, I'll still click that link.

Maybe once a week using RiF ReVanced for

• Checking two small subreddit
• Delete comments that haven't been visible anymore but now are again (because I deleted newer comments, now the older ones starting to appear again)

Nope. Deleted my account as soon as I heard about the API pricing and never looked back. As far as I was and still am concerned, even if they backtracked the API bullshit the writing is on the wall: reddit no longer cares about providing value to users, if they ever did. They're no in the endgame of enshittification of trying to extract value from anywhere they can, quality of service be damned.

Nope. Having finally hammered down the local vernacular ("instances"/"communities") of Lemmy, I am so at home here. I miss RiF, but Liftoff is serving me well

The RIF app was reddit to me. I would typically spend over an hour per day on it.

I do still check Reddit maybe once a day on my desktop, maybe for about 5 minutes. There are still a few communities on there which don't have an active alternative here on Lemmy. However, I have deleted all my old posts and comments, and I do not make any new ones.

Yes, I'm using Lemmy on my phone but on my lunch at work and stuff on my computer it's Reddit still. I am evangelizing Lemmy though.

Not one little bit. I used to be a big fan of reddit, spent 12 years there but as soon as Sync stopped working I deleted my account and never went back.

Just for the porn tbh.

Nope, and I used to do a lot of Reddit - like several times a day, and usually entire evenings just browsing. I used PowerDeleteSuite and deleted my account, and I use an RSS reader with an adblocker for the 2-3 local subs I truly can’t find the same info for elsewhere. One is a university I teach at, and the only exception I’ve made to this was to create a throwaway to answer a question about salaries and point the person who was hoping to teach to our union contract. Worker solidarity > Reddit drama.

I completely switched to lemmy for my random scrolling. But the main community for a game is still there so sometimes I keep lurking that subreddit only (exclusively from pc)

managed to shift my idle browsing here. though i was kind of weening off reddit slowly over the past years. with lemmy exploding it has brought back some of that feeling of exploring and looking for communities i was missing on reddit haha

sadly nebula.tv sends you to reddit for comments on their exclusives, that is one holdover that is also unlikely to go away...

I go to check specific subreddits but I'm no longer a daily user

Boost was the only thing that made it tolerable, I couldn't use the official reddit app even if I wanted to

I completely stopped using it.

Id say 80% Lemmy 20% Reddit now.

Nope! On June 30 I used a script to erase all my prior comments and posts and deleted my accounts.

Fuck u/spez.

I do, but only to support FOSS users in some communities that are not here [yet]. There is no opnsense community here in Lemmy, so when I see questions there in reddit, I help where I can.

However, my "bio" or whatever it is called in reddit, clearly states that I have moved to Lemmy permanently.

I am actually considering creating a opnsense community here and hoping that Franco will come and join, and take over ownership.

I really used reddit to lurk and scroll when I was bored. If I can't use the app I'm used to, there is no reason for me to return. Especially with the way they have been treating the community, I havent been back for about 3 weeks. I downloaded a lemmy app and put that in the same spot as rif was, and I havent looked back.

Absolutely not. I have not logged in once since the day the protest started.
