Done with it and deleted acct last week
Brisbane
Home of the bin chicken. Visit our friends:
Deleted my accounts after 14 years. Contributed, modded, had a decent amount of karma, fuck it.
For me the move wasn't hard to be honest, reddit for me is just hell scrolling (or whatever the term is) to get some news some memes and just keep up with games, and the occasional porn.
I thought about moving to lemmy before the blackout for the sake of easier piracy seeing how they made the move as a backup.
The only thing I miss is the centralized communities, for example in lemmy you have the technology community in several instances splitting the community (unless I'm just confusing on how it works) and the fact that you can't make a custom feed
Otherwise, don't miss reddit.
I haven't used my account since the blackout. I have gone to the site occasionally if I Google something and the answer shows reddit though. My wife hasn't used reddit and is waiting for me to "cave" but I haven't been tempted. The first day was the hardest but now I just use Lemmy. Looking forward to some more polish on the jerboa app but can't complain about anything else really.
Tbh I had slowly already stopped using it. I only use it to Google answers to things.
I've kind of gone on a soft break - I go on there and scroll a little, but don't participate/post and limit my time greatly.
I went ahead and scrubbed my post history over there. When Apollo closes out, I’ll be out. Hoping this setup continues to grow. It’s a shame, but no interest in supporting the current stupidity.
I'm in read-only mode from Apollo, and getting more and more used to the federated content. Come July 1st, it'll be over.
I pretty much deleted the shitty app i specifically only use reddit for finding good info.
Ill delete my account soon though i wont go through the trouble of deleting my comments
I'm on there only once a day very briefly to upvote protesters, and for work. And when I accidentally click a search result, which is a tough habit to kick.
Exited completely. Logged on once to edit a bunch of comments, may do that again and see if they've been reverted.
Not missing it half as much as I thought I would.

I'm 100% done with Reddit. I do miss the user & comment diversity, and there are several subreddits that I have yet to find anything nearing a replacement for elsewhere. I'm an absolute noober to kbin but so far I'm really enjoying what I'm seeing. It feels fresh and new, which is very welcome after over a decade of Reddit use.
I've removed my Reddit account already. If I'm going to have any reason to use it to any extent (maybe one or two niche subs), I'm going to do it through some libreddit instance.
I had 3 reddit accounts and deleted all of them a week ago. I've put up with a lot of shit from reddit for years and the API issue was the last straw.
Btw, this is my first post here. I'm hopelessly lost. Hopefully I can connect with some "magazines" or something!
I can't go back. Digg was abandoned for less.
I'm here now, trying to wean myself off relay. So far I've found the thunder app for Android to be the nicest.
Does anyone use any developmental kbin apps yet or is that not a thing?
Haven't been back since the blackout started, and I'll only go back before June 30 to verify that Power Delete Suite has done its job properly.
I've reduced my usage massively. Beforehand where I would post threads, write comments and upvote / downvote. Now I'm just lurking and consuming, without creating anything of value. I think that's pretty fair given how Spez treated everyone, treating them like they're leeches, when they're the ones trying to pitch an IPO off of people's content
I'm done with the website, I'm not even gonna miss it.
Same, not coming back to reddit anytime soon. And actually, I like it here!
Ditched it and haven’t looked back
I was 100% Apollo so any other inference is shit
Just can’t and won’t
Don’t miss it as much as I thought I would
Also fuck /u/spez
Reddit has done its damage for me. Since a day before the blackout I think I’ve only been back there twice, and only for search results and without logging in. it’s totally been fine for me, and I don’t really see myself going back to Reddit for the things I used to go there for.
I’m still on the fence about removing my account altogether, however, because there are 1 or 2 tiny communities on there who aren’t really organized enough survive a migration. I anticipate needing to pop into one on a rare occasion to ask a very specific question.
If I can get regular interactions here around certain topics like Brisbane, Aussie Politics, and ice hockey then not going back will just be a fairly natural profession for me. Yes, I don't like how they made the API changes but more than that, I'm not going to install their app. Once my 3rd party app of choice stopped working (I use Joey and it's still free and working for now) I'll just fall off.
I'm burning through my comment history with Redact right now and left all my subs. I plan on keeping an account exclusively for my local sub, but I haven't decided if I'm going to keep using mine or spinning up a new one. I already burned my 15 year old account to spite a catty super mod who banned me from 10 or so subs at once I certainly don't care about this one lmao
Ditched for day to day browsing, but still use it for tiny communities that have yet to move to a different platform
I was a Reddit user for 9 years. I ditched it on TikTok to prove to people that they don't control you.
I've uninstalled the app - only had it to participate in r/place anyway, been taking up space since then. I'm still checking it once or twice a day on BaconReader, but seeing a lot of changes to my feed and general user participation. I'm not participating other than scrolling, and that's extremely limited.
