Reddit

I used infinity for reddit app to surf reddit, when they started charging for api, app become unusable then i switched to eternity for lemmy and i love it

Yep. Cold turkey.

Me me me

I got a Lemmy account with the main exodus, but my 3rd party Reddit app continued to work (though it slowly broke bit by bit) until just a couple days ago when it completely stopped working at all.

Now I've fully swapped off of Reddit and onto Lemmy.

More than 4

This one. Second my app stopped working I never went back. Have been an avid daily contributor for a decade.

I use reddit only 2-3 times a month since the kill of third party apps.

I did! They banned my account after a dispute with a Mod claiming I was being islamaphobic for asking about professor who was killed for supposedly showing a picture of Muhammad (which later turned out the daughter lied about) by a girl's father who was mad man who claimed Islam. The post was praising Islam for being a religion of peace and anyone who said differently didn't understand... so I asked about that case.... got banned from the sub.. argued with the mod, who then reported.e for harassment to the Reddit team and boom, permanently banned, no appeal option... My four year account and 97k karma gone.. then they banned my Alt account because of my phone IP address... I was so pissed.. tried VPNs too.. no good after a while..

Then I googled reddit alternatives, and a few scrolls down, I saw a forum from lemmy discusing how it had just launched as the reddit alternative and to try it.. I am glad I did. I like this better.. I wish there was more content though.. I love certain shows and love discussion about them. Like MTV the challenge or what we do in the shadows... Lemmy is so new, it doesn't have all those communitys just yet but I am happy to be here and watch the site grow.

I nuked my 10yo account. I was so pissed about the API thing. Sadly, I do still find myself on random reddit threads if I'm looking for some specific info though...it's just not as easy to search for relevant info through Lemmy. But I do love the community for what it is though.

When Sync stopped working on Reddit, I found kbin and Lemmy, and haven't looked back. Especially with Sync being on Lemmy. Reddit isn't worth the agitation anymore.

I mapped reddit.com to 127.0.0.1. My life is so much better now!

Mostly. It helps that Voyager looks exactly like Apollo. I forget I’m on lemmy sometimes.

I did

I deleted my reddit account and browse lemmy daily. I do miss a few subs on reddit concerning ancient greece/greek and corvids, but it is what it is. I'm fairly satisfied with lemmy.

I've not been able to stop using Reddit because quite simply, some subs never migrated and they are major subs for me, such as /r/hockey. I've been using it less for sure and I've used Lemmy more, especially with Sync now available, but only time will tell.

I still read Reddit sometimes, but I don't have an account anymore. It's like reading Facebook posts now. Really, really low quality content. It's sad, but I like the community here. Lemmy is more like what Reddit was 15ish years ago.

I blows my mind that people still use it.

lemmy publishes activate user data, im pretty sure most or all came from reddit, but no way to know how many still active there

I think we should focus on quality and thoughtful discussion. I appreciate stupid memes too, but if it were up to me that would be secondary - even if overall popularity takes a hit.

Also, less concern over Reddit would be nice. I was there from the Digg exodus until the API drama, so I understand the change aspect quite well, but if genuine conversation is what matters to you, the correct people are here now.

I did I enjoy lemmy for what it is. Like any social media just block defaults you don't like and tune it to your own subscriptions an its fine.

I dropped it for the Fediverse. I decided to use kbin after trying Lemmy for a bit.

I thought this was going to be more of polling post.

Anyway I did. I deleted my account and haven't gone back for anything since then. It's rough too cause now there's no connection to the local groups here.

I joined a local instance hoping there would be local people posting but I guess that's not how lemmy works.

Dropped it and haven't looked back.

Deleted my reddit account a while ago. Don't really use lemmy as much as I used to use reddit, but I see that as a good thing. the quality of the use I get is a lot better here too.

technically, i dropped reddit for tumblr.....lemmy is a sometimes indulgences

I was on RIF for years, deleted everything and haven't gone back. It's kinda liberating, I don't spend nearly as much time here as I did Reddit, and it scratches the itch.

I think if Reddit was really good, 90% of the people here would not have a good reason to use Lemmy. I was on Lemmy before the blackout & it wasn't great; had I plugged it then, many would be reluctant to switch. Now, it is amazing, and Reddit ensured that Lemmy got a nice influx of users to make that happen :)

I dropped reddit and facebook. Don't miss them much.

I have dropped it, approximately by 98%

I mainly browse Lemmy here with Sync for Lemmy, and when I want some more niche stuff I head up to Reddit with patched Sync for Reddit, so yeah, Sync is always with me.

I've mostly been using Lemmy since the exodus, but checked back once in a while because Relay was still working. It seems Relay finally stopped working properly, so I'm done with Reddit now. 100 percent Lemmy/Tildes for me.

Edit: to add Tildes. I like it over there too.

I'm still mostly on Reddit, but I've definitely cut down my participation. For example I stopped up/downvoting posts entirely. And haven't really been participating in askreddit / eli5

The post I've made are either mirrored, or limited to relatively obscure communities.

As for lemmy, still lurking, not quite ready to dive in.

At least one, because I did. Totally uninstalled the app and only use the website for obscure google queries where Reddit is the only meaningful result

I don't passively use it anymore, but I'll use it as a reference for past posts.

"How to determine undertone lemmy" doesn't really work like "... reddit"

I've almost entirely dropped reddit for Lemmy. I still go back to reddit for tech support and some niche communities that haven't made the jump yet. But I'd guess that my reddit usage is down 90% YOY.

+1

Tbh I felt Reddit was getting less interesting and more of a habit, Apollo was the last straw. Lemmy is small and a much less active, but more random. Prob good to reduce the mindless scrolling.

1 here, occasionally I view an old post while troubleshooting something and a Reddit page has the answer. Always with an ad blocker and old Reddit though of course so Spez gets nothing from me
