Yes, not sticking around while it slowly becomes a worse and worse user experience
Yes
Already did replace it with Lemmy several months ago.
I never used Reddit before this, I didnโt really like the idea of using Reddit. But now I can use Reddit without actually using Reddit.
Yes.
I uninstalled Reddit when Infinity died
I don't have any accounts in reddit anymore. I only browse reddit maybe for 5 mins a day now. I could block reddit without barely noticing at this time
I am but I'm not sure why everyone complaint of ads but still using Reddit doesn't just use Reddit Revancec?
This made my day ๐
I abandoned Reddit entirely when Sync shut down. Beehaw and Lemmy at large seem like a (mostly) great place and I'm here to stay.
I just have to find some of my communities here then thats it.
Completely switched the day before 3d party access was monetized and crippled.
Yup, was a loyal Sync For Reddit user. Wasn't sure how I was going to cope to be honest but Lemmy has been great so far.
Trying to completely leave reddit as of a few days ago when boost finally stopped working. I haven't been back so far and this is my primary site now and also following discuit in hopes it grows bigger than it currently is.
I know I will use reddit for work when I have technical questions but that's it.
Yes, I am and I have. I have up my reddit account a month ago.
I think I accidentally opened reddit once, trying to get an answer from a google search. I'm done with Reddit.
So far am trying too. I usully get most of my news from reddit during normal use. Would normally browse by Hot on R/all and first few posts were typically "important" news articles. Don't really see the same amount of posts here. Maybe will pick up during election season or will have to break down and find a more dedicated news server.
Iโm pretty close. I still check a few smaller Reddit communities but only when Iโm on my pc in the browser. Almost all interacting (posting and comments) is on Lemmy now.
Absolutely.
I already did, during the blackout. I honestly didn't have much hope for things to improve or roll back. Also, in the last month I've seen the communities grow a lot, so I don't miss reddit that much.
I am, here's the proof:
me with lenny
I'm bouncing around Reddit and Lemmy. Won't be contributing much to Reddit anymore and will be posting and commenting on Lemmy.
well yeah for the most part but it has been tough as some of my communities have are non existent here or little activity so i still go through old reddit and look at some subreddits.
