I’ve tried looking online but I’m not savvy enough to find a good answer. I haven’t been on Reddit since June 30, and am interested in seeing the number of people who have migrated. I know the Reddit user base is huge, so idk if it has been enough to hurt the site. Fuck spez.

As one of those, I can't even really answer it.

I used to spend hours a day on the site, mostly on my phone. Now I'm blocked from accessing it on my phone at all. I've stopped doom scrolling reddit altogether.

But I still get linked to Reddit often, from both friends and google searches. And there are one or two specific threads that I'm sure to check.

I've basically cut down from 15+ hours a week of Reddit to less than one. So have I quit Reddit or not?

I’m similar to you, and would say I’ve quit. It’s the same with Facebook and Twitter. Occasionally someone will send me something from there or there’ll be something I can’t find anywhere else, but I don’t stick around to browse afterwards.
