I did a few months back.

[–] stagen@feddit.dk 1 points 2 years ago

I check in on reddit every once in a while via the app called Comet. It's definitely gone back to it's usual self but it feels more impersonal than ever now that I use Lemmy too.

Less than I thought would to be honest...

[–] GarytheSnail@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

I dropped it.

I will probably use it just for my nhl teams sub once the season starts up. But that's it.

[–] circuscritic@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

I still use it via the limited 3rd party apps that are still available, but my usage has dropped by 90%.

Lemmy is mostly fine for news sharing and commenting, but my more niche subs aren't really built out enough here yet. I'm relatively hopeful that Lemmy will continue to grow, and the non-meme communities will grow with it.

JFC the meme communities are everywhere here. I block all that I find. Maybe that's how Reddit is now as well, but my subs had been curated and fine toned over a decade so I didn't see the content I wasn't interested in.

Definitely me ...I mean it sucks now...but I mostly quit after aita_mods_are_all_incels as a username got me super duper banned....but they are definitely useless fucks

I changed my reddit link to lemmy but kept the snoo symbol.

I don't really visit too much, I will sweep by a few times a week or so. Reddit I only go to when Google takes me there, which is often enough thst I had to install the official turd of an app.

But I do t have a user over there anymore, so I am not logged in.

There's a few communities I still check in on occasionally, which haven't moved to Lemmy yet, but I've mostly shifted to Lemmy. Hopefully Lemmy grows, & more of those old places move here. I'll keep using & supporting this platform, in the meantime.

I did mostly. But when I really need reddit for something, I use a libreddit instance I set up on my raspberry pi.

But my Reddit-Account still exists.

I currently use both. I want to make the switch but I mostly use Reddit for destiny 2 and haven't been able to find the community here for that.

[–] fujiwara@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 years ago

I did but I only get on here to kill time at work.

I visit Lemmy with sync on my phone and tablet. On pc I still visit reddit. I actually haven't visited anything of Lemmy on pc yet.

The content of Lemmy does feel lacking compared to what reddit used to offer me. And so does the content on reddit actually (feel lacking compared to what reddit used to offer me when I visited it with sync for reddit).

The home tab when logged into the reddit app is just weird, so many subs that I have no interest in seeing are being shown, while subs that I'm actually a member off are shoved down the list. The worst offender for me, was that reddit had decided for me that I should be interested in my countries' fascist sub, just because I'm a member of the pluralist main sub. When I was using the reddit app for a few weeks, I would see racist dog whistle posts daily. So now I don't login into reddit anymore, I just browse it anonymous now.

[–] 5in1k@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

I look at Reddit on Desktop and I use Lemmy on mobile.

[–] kib48@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

I did but it's been increasingly tempting to go back due to the site's reredesign (which i think is actually really good) and the lack of activity related to my interests on Lemmy

[–] snowbell@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I did at first but I'm using Reddit again alongside this because Lemmy is kind of depressing/exhausting, and also doesn't have a lot of the content I want. Namely firearms and motorcycle stuff, along with lots of food related subs.

For years I have rallied against the dark forces working to consume Reddit's glorious mission statment but the minor inconvenience of a subpar app was just too much!

[–] LainOfTheWired@lemy.lol 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

While I'm still in the process of closing down my Reddit account due to having a lot of useful saved posts. A big thing that has helped my switch is the my favorite Reddit client infinity got forked( or repurposed by the dev. I'm not sure which) into a Lemmy version called eternity, so the move in terms of app familiarity has been almost seamless. I do find quality posts and content in general is on a much smaller scale on here, but that has actually been a good thing for me as I now spend a lot less time on social media.

Reddit is PC only using the old site. But I've been using it much less now despite most of my usage was on PC already. I much prefer Lemmy on my PC and Summit on mobile now.

[–] Endorkend@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I check both Reddit and Kbin, have both of them open in pinned tabs.

But I spend a whole lot less time on Reddit than I used to.

And it's not like I now spend the less time I spend there on Kbin either, I'm just mostly beyond browsing it obsessively and do other crap instead.

Same with Twitter.

After I quit Twitter and moved to Mastodon, I do read my feed once or so a day, but compared to a year ago, I barely participate anymore.
