MODERATORS
Yes, I am and I have. I have up my reddit account a month ago.
Yes, first week was kinda rough with lack of content, but itβs quickly getting better.
Havenβt logged into Reddit since they announced the API changes.
Yes. Mostly because I got permabanned from Reddit about a year ago for making offensive jokes and trying to appeal a sub ban by using an alt account. Given what's happening now on Reddit, it seems I didn't lose much.
However, the fact that this site clearly states on its rules that it's not a free speech space means that it will never ever be as good as Reddit on its early years.
I pretty much did already, still check on 2 or 3 communities when I am front of a computer but I hope lemmy while become more active and I will not feel like I am missing out.
I already did.
Haven't even opened reddit from google results since the protest started. I've also been removing subreddits from my RSS reader
I was ready to leave Reddit last week, when my third party app stop working... but it doesn't stop and now, everytime i open Joey for Reddit i kinda wish it don't work anymore, cause i think why should i leave, if it works?
Reddit --> Lemmy 4 me 2
I never used Reddit before this, I didnβt really like the idea of using Reddit. But now I can use Reddit without actually using Reddit.
Already did replace it with Lemmy several months ago.
I don't really use Reddit any more.
Yup, even if Lemmy lacks in content it's general plus in my book, no mindless scrolling, have time to touch the grass etc
Didn't delete my account or anything, but fuck them
Yes. I haven't gone back to reddit in a few weeks now.
Basically! I still haven't found equivalents for everything I was following on Reddit since my account there is 13 years old, but I have found more than I expected. Just since late June when I started lurking here it seems to have grown significantly. I suspect there's a higher proportion of longtime Redditors who have left recently since we've seen it abandon the principles it was founded on.
Yes
This made my day π
Yes
Yes.
Maybe one day, maybe it's using Connect but it seems like no matter what filter I use I keep seeing the same posts (and the majority of it about reddit) so I've definitely added it into my rotation, but doesn't quite feel like it's enough yet.
A mix between hacker news and Lemmy
I think I accidentally opened reddit once, trying to get an answer from a google search. I'm done with Reddit.
I uninstalled Reddit when Infinity died
Working on it for sure.
No, because the niche subs aren't alive here.
I haven't deleted anything on reddit, but I have not been back there since the protests began. The Fediverse is my new home and I am happy to be here.
I am but I'm not sure why everyone complaint of ads but still using Reddit doesn't just use Reddit Revancec?
i still have a million things 'saved' on reddit i need to check out and there's that one niche sub i lurk that doesn't seem to want to migrate but other than that yeah this is it for me. lemm.ee + wefwef
Yes. I haven't used reddit since I signed up for Lemmy.
Yes. Just hoping lots of communities get as popular as asklemmy and showerthoughts. Sad looking up some Reddit equivalents and seeing 2 subscribers and no posts.
trying to
I only ever go there to check the front page/news now. Lemmy is growing fast, but being decentralized, at the moment it's still easier to catch up on politics and world news using reddit.
Would be easiers by subscribing to theses communities until they merge in one. You will see more subjects that interest you.
Until the merge, I have different accounts with different orientations.
Actually, if u don't do that, Lemmy is really "hazardous".
Yes, I still have to get some info from my reddit account before deleting everything, but soon.
Completely switched the day before 3d party access was monetized and crippled.
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
