Simply yes. Not going back
I deleted my reddit account (and all my content beforehand) so yeah...still looking around for matching communities though.
I've only accessed reddit once since RIF died, just to see what r/all looked like. Not interested in returning tbh. I'll join the smaller communities on Lemmy or make my own.
now that you mention it, I realize I've not been there since ... may be a week or two.
Lenny is dead, replacing him with George.
(But yes, switching to Lemmy from Reddit ๐)
I've pretty much completely left Reddit since Apollo shut down. I'm happy with Lemmy, so far, except I'm honestly getting tired of the somewhat elitist attitude and fear/anger towards anything that isn't in the fediverse. I noticed it when I left Twitter for Mastodon too, and it's kind of getting old.
I'm not saying some of what's being said isn't justified, it's just not what I feel like seeing every time I open the app/site.
Yes, I just recently created my Lemmy account and had to answer a question like "why did you choose this username".
What did you answer, OP?
I didn't remove my Reddit account yet, but I stopped using it as soon as I tried Lemmy. As I expected, it's not perfect, it still needs some love on the technical side, but people and content are already here. I'm pretty happy with my feed so far. I can only see it grow and getting better, but I guess we'll find out how the fight with spam bots will be.
So far, so good , yes I like it just waiting for sync and boost for lemmy
Iโm on lemmy a lot but not all the communities that I frequent on Reddit moved or have enough people over at lemmy.
Currently going back and forth because there are still some subreddits that don't have an active community.
Hopefully, soon most if not all niche I follow will have a dedicated community here.
Also, still waiting for a better mobile client (excited for boost for lemmy and relay for lemmy).
not yet. because Lemmy is still quite small tbh. But, the thing is Since Reddit new API policy starts, my Reddit home feed filled with spam,bots and double posts from many subs. So, if this problem overwhelms my home feed. I might move to Lemmy permanently.
Yeah. I'm just waiting for the subs that I was active at to grow here (mostly space-related subs).
There are only two subreddits I'm checking right now. One will be defunct when reddit shuts down that app. The other is a gaming subreddit where I'm not going to get the kind of discourse here that is there (yet). I can use their forums but...I like simplicity these days and having everything in one place is just easier.
I already have. I deleted all my Reddit posts and comments and deleted my account the other day. I'm all on the Lemmy train now.
Gradually, I hope. At the moment there are too many communities missing. Mods of Subreddits need to move here.
Yep. I didn't bother installing the normal Reddit app but still needed something to read when all I've got is my phone. Lemmy looks promising.
I'm an old lady and I'm trying, it's a little hard to navigate though, so I would say I spend less time here than I did Reddit, but I am 10 days fully clean from Reddit after a month of weaning. I've also started getting up and moving around more throughout my work day and listening to audiobooks and podcasts.
Yes i have basically replaced Reddit at this point, other than if google search comes up with something I need.
It's a good 95% because I uninstalled the app. Lemmy has a lot of potential, and that's worth it.
I've already deleted all of my posts and edited the comments to "FUCK YOU u/spez". I didn't delete the account because the little cunt has a reputation for editing user's comments, I'm just gonna mass edit them from time to time to be sure.
I even changed out the email with an alias one literally saying "fuckyouspez@..." and that fucker hasn't banned me yet.
I scrambled, shredded, and then deleted my Reddit account after getting my data request back. I'm done with that place because I can only see it going downhill from here - site will only get more enshittified over time, this was the tipping point.
Definitely. I don't plan on downloading the official Reddit app anytime soon and for years I have been more of a lurker on Reddit but I am trying to break that and participate more on Lemmy. Really enjoying it so far.
jesssir, deleted all my reddit accs
Both yes and no. Yes the time I used to spend browsing reddit is now spent using lemmy. But the experience is totally different in lemmy. I am a much more active part of the community here whereas I was a lurker at reddit
from my phone, i only have access to lemmy. in browser i access both, 50/50. there are 10 or so subs that i frequent on reddit, the rest i'm here. it's hard to let that account go because i put energy into building it and it's 10+ years old. i've been using it to track my journey in life. was planning on aggregating the data.
The community reddit had was really good. I hope it is replicated here. I wonder is there is a way to transfer some of the reddit data here?
Mostly. I prefer Lemmy. I actually like it enough to run my own instance.
no doubt. fuck reddit
Nope, it doesn't have the user base.. hopefully that changes but for right now, I'm using both.
Yepp, waiting for the new Sync app but really liking it here so far.
I mostly have by now, had to look for community analogues of the subreddits most important to me and create communties that I missed on lemmy. On Reddit I was mostly lurking around but here I actually have the motivation to post and manage communities, since I this is an open and decentralized platform.
I have tried to but am currently using both although I only use reddit on my computer at home. Sadly I find that the content just isn't here. Sure there's a lot of tech and gaming stuff but if you aren't interested in that then there isn't all that much else
Got some nsfw and philosophy subreddits that scratch a certain itch but it doesn't feel right using the terrible official client. Mostly using Lemmy nowadays.
