I did as soon as Sync came out.

I only lurked on Reddit through third party apps. Now I am permanently here, and I can comment and post with good conscience too!

I did.

I was a sync user. Waited until the last day. Been quite until recently. I think I've had more conversations here then in my four years with Reddit. Something about the sizes of the communities made it hard to feel like a part of the conversation.

I have. Lemmy is especially good for content geared towards news, tech, FOSS, privacy, memes (if, unlike me, Reddit-style memes are your thing), et cetera. For me, that checks off all the boxes for what i used Reddit for, so when i started using Lemmy, there wasn't really anything i was missing from Reddit. So, while i'm willing to miss out on some content in order to drop Reddit, i haven't really needed to.

However, this definitely isn't the case for most people. If people are just using Reddit for certain things they just don't see on Lemmy, that's totally fine (though i hope they're using an ad blocker or something), especially if they stick around for when Lemmy does start having that kind of content.

Growth isn't a straight line and there will be points of fluctuation, stagnation, and decline.

I did. And I did it exclusively because of reddit sync. I used that app to browse reddit during my decade plus old account. Once reddit sync left, the app maker said he's moving to lemmy. I never even heard of lemmy until then. Now I'm here on sync.

I did. Fuck reddit.

Present ✋

I've stopped using it on mobile entirely, but still use Reddit for some communities like r/bash and the like, or otherwise things related to my job -- though, only on desktop.

That said, I'd like to fully move off of the platform eventually.

I switched.

left reddit completely and found a replacement for every community I am interested in. i love lemmy

I refuse to use their shitty app, but I still use old reddit on the desktop. If they remove old.reddit.com, I will probably not use it at all.

On mobile, I tried a few apps. Lemmy feels very empty and devoid of content and communities. Mastodon is not that interesting. I feel that hacker news is the best alternative right now. Even though it doesn't have that many users, the fact that it has a single "community" helps it feel far less empty, and more focused towards technical people.

I left and haven't looked back. Honestly with the consistent growth of lemmy there's been now need.

Left reddit after 13 years, never looked back. Fuck Reddit

First tried Lemmy during the blackouts, never went back to reddit after Boost stopped working

I started my own instance and haven't touched Reddit since, except sometimes as search results. But I don't browse, login, etc.

I left reddit for good. I will not knowingly enhance reddits traffic stats on principle for the crap spez pulled. Everyone should do the same.

I sure did. I was already tired of their terrible moderation policies and the arbitrary power some mods abused all to hell. Good riddance.

I dropped mobile reddit for Lemmy. I still use reddit on my PC, but never on my mobile devices.

I did. Occasionally visit old.reddit.com put of nostalgia, but never logged in, never controbute. It's not as busy here, but i like it. Lemmy has an OG nerd feeling to it.

If "dropped Reddit for Hexbear" means getting perma-banned from Reddit, then sure.

Edit: No, it's not because I did anything cool. I actually don't know and nobody from the corp responded to why my inactive account got zapped

I haven't participated on Reddit since leaving for Lemmy, and I've barely participated on blahaj since leaving for hexbear

I only looked at Reddit on Sync so when that stopped working I stopped visiting Reddit. Now I look at Lemmy on Sync but not as much

There are some communities that never transitioned to Lemmy, so I'll be using them untill old.reddit is disabled.

I dropped reddit for sure, but can't say I'm exactly an avid Lemmy user. There just isn't enough things I'm interested in. I pop in every once in a while but I'll probably drop this too soon. I have absolutely no idea how I will even get any news, since I don't watch tv, and that kinda scares me. On the other hand, I started reading books again, which I hadn't touched ever since I became a redditor

Deleted my reddit account a while ago. Don't really use lemmy as much as I used to use reddit, but I see that as a good thing. the quality of the use I get is a lot better here too.

I only used baconreader, and so did my wife. So no more reddit for us.

Still using reddit read-only through Libreddit but I don't even check it every day anymore.

I hit up my niche self-hosted and Linux subs, take a peek at /r/all, get immediately put off by all the bot content and toxicity, and come right back to Lemmy.

I only go back when a site like this or /v/ links me back.

I used infinity for reddit app to surf reddit, when they started charging for api, app become unusable then i switched to eternity for lemmy and i love it
