Reddit

If I really have to visit that page I do it either via cached version or via teddit. Fuck u/spez does not deserve my traffic.

there are still a lot of subreddit that haven't ported to Lemmy [not porting the entire subreddit with all the post to lemmy]

I treat the blackout and what came after (replaced mods, etc) as a strike. I don’t cross picket lines and I don’t support scabs.

Well, yeah. That's why I'm mostly here instead.

My Redditing is down from hours daily to a few minutes, at a couple of specific subReddits with info and news I haven't yet been able to find elsewhere.

Not really, I'm going there to watch a slow motion train wrecking into a dumpster fire nowadays.

I've felt gross for years, ever since they switched from old reddit to the new trash design. I used old.reddit.com for a bit, but stopped once I saw how much tracking garbage ublock was blocking, even on old reddit.

Before lemmy I was using teddit as a privacy focused frontend for reddit which worked great. But now the API changes will kill teddit so no more reddit for me!

I haven’t been back yet (at least not intentionally; I’ve carelessly clicked some links that opened reddit but I closed them right away.) At some point I do want to go back and see if a couple of my weirder, smaller communities have made any announcements about moving off reddit. If they haven’t/won’t, then I guess I’ll have to learn to live without them. (Arguably the healthier option but what can I say? I’m weak! If I don’t have to give them up, I won’t.)

Don’t know if I’ll be able to bring myself to delete my account. Again I know I probably should, but I really don’t want to for reasons I can’t articulate.

I just don't visit Reddit. Problem solved.

We don't go to Ravenholm anymore.

I don't.

I haven't visited Reddit since the second day of the whole fiasco.

I still check out a few specialised subs that haven't' made it over here or that I can't find a Facebook equivalent I like yet. One is for our local town and one is for cancer support. I don't feel great about it, but as I used to spend hours a day on Reddit it's a vast improvement. Don't let perfect stand in the way of good is how I look at it. I may just end up starting the cancer patient support ones on my own over here, but I'm hoping someone that knows what they are doing will beat me to it.

No, but my last visit is likely on the horizon

I either use ad-block or the "unsanctioned" RiF app and am only there to watch it die rather than engage

Only delaying deleting my account to give them a fair chance to course-correct before the apps that make it usable shut down (or tweak their codebase to work with Lemmy)

I've always permanently browsed with Ublock Origin on desktop or Apollo on mobile... So they get effectively no revenue from me aside from maybe selling my browsing habits. Either way Ad revenue is likely what's keeping them afloat right now so that helps it feel a little less dirty. Once my niche subreddits are moved over it's bye bye forever

I won't go back. I'm a full lemming now.

It's just become so toxic. I remember when I used to enjoy going to Reddit and it used to make me feel good. It used to make me laugh. Now it's just negativity.

Totally agree!

I haven't taken baconreader off my phone yet because I'm not ready, but I also don't visit Reddit anymore either. I'm pretty happy on Lemmy right now, and I was thinking about giving Mastodon a go.

Currently only using rif occasionally as some subreddits haven't transferred only, otherwise I'm browsing here, but I feel bad.

I feel like going to the Chernobyl exclusion zone every time I had to specifically go in there, not to access content from there (I use libreddit, teddit or archive.org for that), but to check on my accounts (via old.reddit).

What I do is to just do what I need to do, see if any of my posts or comments have resurfaced, scrub them off, delete them (or just use Power Delete Suite for that), and then go back out without any delay. The less time I spend there, the better.

I hVent logged in since the blackout. So no.

Yeah, I check out the existentialist french cinema shitpost images of women smoking on redscarepod and some buttcoin for the luls, via teddit. Found a decent bud of buttcoin on fediverse and I fully expect to be ready to unceremoniously stop anonymously lurking come July 1st and let reddit digg itself into a shithole.

I've been wanting to quit reddit for a long time. It hasn't been the same for years, and it's just gotten worse over time. I'm hoping that lemmy provides me something close to what reddit used to give me: great quality discussion and debate concerning real ideas. Maybe I'm just getting older and more bitter over time, but it seems like the entire website is inundated with children on mobile devices who can't think of any idea more complex than one which can be summed up in a single sentence and a Laughing Crying emoji. If not, I'll see if I can't get a tildes invite. But, yes, going back to reddit feels like cheating on a diet, or smoking a cigarette when you're trying to quit.

Unfortunately I'm visiting on old.reddit every now and again to keep up with sport news. Once the transfer window is over it's goodbye Vienna.

Yes, also because of all the nsfw content.

I go on Reddit when i google something.

I feel the same. I feel like the main place to find out if anything is going to happen is on reddit, though... I don't know what I expect to happen besides things to get worse.

Personally I don't. Reddit won't go away anytime soon.

Instead, I have a reminder to delete my posted content and account when 2 days are remaining until API becomes paid. The I would only visit Reddit using desktop and never on mobile.

Considering the only time I visit reddit is to keep deleting my posts that pop up after I run my deletion script, no, I don't.

I'm using Apollo until it shuts down. Then my only interaction with Reddit will be via old.reddit.com

I only visit r/all and just to see if there's any big anti-reddit news floating near the top.

please dont feel bad, it takes time to wean yourself off reddit
Just slowly reduce the amount of time you spend on it and spend more time on other stuff

However for you all out there, esp if you are a mod working hard to migrate your community here, we can understand going on reddit as a necessary evil to do in order to move your communities

I don't mind browsing the web version with my ad blocker. Before, it was just because I don't like ads. But the icing on the cake now is the knowledge that every byte I siphon off their server costs them something that they will never get back from me
