I maintain my account for reference, but rarely visit unless I'm searching for something unavailable here. All my interactions take place here.
I still go back to reddit for specialized subs which don't have equivalents here, but that's only in my work desktop.
I also delete my replies after a few days
All my mobile browsing is done on sync and I'm here 75% of the time
I did. I deleted my Reddit account on July 2. I was using Lemmy.world as my main since the middle of June, but lately I've been using this instance because of lemmy.world's constant issues.
I refuse to use the official Reddit app, and while Narwhal is fine and all, it seems like any third-party app's days are numbered, whether they pay up or not. And while spez said Old Reddit isn't going anywhere, he also said he wasn't going to copy Elon.
I switched and in the end that's all that matters, you're welcome everyone
I haven't loved back in since Sync for reddit stored working.
There are dozens of us.
In all seriousness, I do occasionally visit select subreddits even though I no longer have an account. I'd like to think leaving reddit has changed my internet browsing habits in a good way.
I've only gone back to Reddit when Google lead me there. Otherwise, I'm here.
Never posted on reddit, most communities seemed hostile and unwilling to hear different perspectives. People here seem a lot more reasonable.
Most of the people on here probably did, or traded/split time between the two.
I left. I check reddit maybe once every 2 weeks for one single subreddit, for medical reasons. It's still the best source of information for me in this particular situation.
Sometimes I miss the constant feed of fresh posts but then I remember that I really don't need that. I'm still up to date on pretty much everything I need with Lemmy and I'm not constantly doomscrolling like I was on reddit.
I'm pretty much done with it. I do the occasional search for piracy content with a search engine but other than that I get my fill of internet surfing elsewhere.
Not that meant of us obviously.
Enough that it has really helped Lemmy. Too few to materially impact Reddit.
Does use include viewing it in search engine results? Or do you mean actively posting to it?
I do the former but not the latter.
I dropped reddit but I do occasionally check for specific technical stuff anonymously sometimes.
Idk how you would get a clean estimate, however I can say that I no longer use Reddit
I didn't really drop Reddit, I just don't have the easy phone access I used to have so I visit it a lot less now and I don't like their app. I can use Lemmy right here on my phone and found an app that's very similar to BaconReader so I'm good for now.
I set on Lemmy.zip during the blackout protest on Reddit, and haven't gone back to it. Don't miss it. Lemmy has grown a lot in the past few months. It's only a fraction of the Reddit userbase size, but steadily filling out and getting better.
Yep, and haven't missed it at all.
me, although my hand was slightly forced with a permaban at the same time. I don't regret it at all, although I do miss some of the niche communities that aren't really taking off here (yet)
Me but reddit comes up in searches and I still have to go to it for things like local postings and gaming stuff
I did.
I guess you could look at how many users Lemmy added during the drama, most likely near 100% of those were Reddit refugee. I did switch when it became clear reddit overall was getting too shitty, too big & corporate.
I use both Reddit and Lemmy now. I used to use RiF on mobile but now Reddit for me is pc only. Liftoff for Lemmy has taken over that spot on my phone now. The main reason I haven't been able to completely switch is just the lack of some of my favourite sub Reddits switching over to Lemmy. The Lemmy communities exist but they're lacking numbers.
Count me in. Removed my account after I had heard that admins are removing mods from the closed/nsfw subreddits. The content on Lemmy is not that diverse yet, I miss regional or nieche technical communities sometimes. But I hope things will get better eventually.
Yeah, I stopped using Reddit completely and it has given me a lot of time back in my day. I enjoy Lemmy, but it is not as content rich - which is good because I don't stick around as much as I did on Reddit. It's just enough, should have kicked reddit years ago honestly
Yep. Deleted my account and all previous comment and post history. Haven't gone back.
I use lemmy on my phone, but for the rare occasions I am at my PC I still use reddit, because there are active communities there that don't exist here unfortunately.
I tried using reddit again twice since the exodus. it's just not the same.
Me
I did for Lemmy + Tildes + a bit of Hackernews.
I did too
I switched the day after Boost went dark. The only times I go on Reddit are when I Google something and a reddit link comes up. Lemme definitely isn't a 1:1, but I kinda like it more because the user base seems better quality. I've made more posts/comments in my few months on Lemmy than I did in my few years on Reddit.
I did. Barring search results.
Me too. I haven't used Reddit at all since RIF stopped working on 1st July.
