I registered to try it out. Looks nice so far. Hopefully more users switch and start filling this place with content.
I've already managed to replace Reddit on mobile. On the desktop, however, I'm partially there. There are still a couple of communities I follow that only exist on reddit.
Yeah, deleted RIF early and just pretend it doesn't exist. I'll probably use it if a useful answer pops up on Google, but not for scrolling.
Lemmy and Threads will have to fill the gap for now, but if they grow I don't see a problem at all.
with my 3rd party app of choise diem my reddit usage so no more reddit for me
Yes. I used both for a while but Reddit got quiet and no point in using Reddit without the apps.
Yep, left reddit and came to lemmy.
TBH I could have continued using Reddit as it was in may. Now I'm basically kicked off of a Reddit experience that doesn't treat me like livestock in a cage (the official app). So here I am.
Yes, next question
Yes. I stopped using Reddit during the blackouts and havenβt turned back. Lemmy so far has been a good replacement in all ways. Fuck spez!
Other than some specific subs, yes
Please dont tell anyone how I live
I havenβt been on Reddit since Apollo went dark. Iβm done with it except for a couple specific communities until similar ones are available here.
I'm trying, but there are a lot of people and communities who don't follow. The corporate are just too powerful at the moment. Like Facebook's new Threads is replacing Twitter, instead of Mastodon. Here in Finland Mastodon had it's moment and people were migrating to that, but I dunno.
For actual conversations, yeah. I still check one subreddit daily for game leak updates, but that's pretty much it.
Yes. This is my new Reddit replacement
100%....Havent even looked back since last Friday around 7 when RIF stopped working...spent a couple hours finding Lemmy and eventually Liftoff, I have a new home now
Not replacing. But trying to be honest. And I'm liking Lemmy with "Connect" app pretty much.
Can't believe Reddit can't pay to any of these Devs to revamp their shitty low performance app.
But anyway. I'm like the idea of the Lemmy instances etc.
So far yep! Why not?
Reddit has no loyalty to me so why should I have to it?
Ultimately I just want some interesting useless funny shit to look at. Doesn't matter where it comes from.
This is my first Lemmy comment ever!
Yup, I've done the full switcheroo. Not going to be using Reddit's app and 90% of my Reddit use is on my phone...
I am definitely replacing Reddit with Lemmy/kbin. I am done with Reddit.
Yes, for sure. Felt like Reddit where going downhill for a long time. This frog is finally jumping out of the pot.
I'm using it on my phone, but still browsing Reddit on PC. Going well so far and I assume as I find more communities on Lemmy that I enjoy my use of reddit will slowly decrease.
Yes. For me, reddit was Apollo, havenβt used it since
Yep, there's just a couple communities stuck on Reddit that I still look at, but overall I'm around 80% Lemmy 20% Reddit now.
Yeap, I moved a week before on Lemmy. Took couple of days to figure out how it actually works.
During that time opened a bunch of accounts on different instances.
Now I am on a small instance, which is near my location, so speed is good.
I stopped visiting that place since then. Now I only contribute here. I don't want to give them free labor so that they can make money.
Yeah
Well, this is nice, hello
