I switched and in the end that's all that matters, you're welcome everyone

I left Reddit for good. Aside from the garbage spez pulled, I can’t use the site without Apollo.

[–] Nedlymandico@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I'm trying right now. Just signed up n got approved.

My reddit account got soft locked over a year ago making me re-evaluate my relation with social media. I never bothered to reset my password as i could still lurk where i was previously logged in. The app-ocalypse meant i would have needed to get it fixed so i moved to lemmy instead and never looked back.

I use both but my Reddit usage is down. There are communities there that don’t have a replacement here yet

Instead of using Reddit's site, I opted to use Libdirect which redirects you to privacy respecting front-ends instead of Reddit's website. It's kinda handy once you figure out some instances, the downside is that some instances are down and you need to take the time pinging those instances if they are working.

Here's the current use-case for me: I'll type reddit.com/r/privacy on my browser but then the extension will find the working instance you set and will completely redirect you to https://l.opnxng.com/r/privacy.

The only problem for this one is that you can't really comment to those questionable takes on r/unpopularopinion lol

We need so someone that can count all the "I did" messages and use that as a crappy metric lol.

Found out about lemmy through r/place, I was with a group allied with the join lemmy group. The group was encouraged to join lemmy.

[–] Pofski@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 years ago

I did. Only connect to Reddit if I want to find something from saved items.

Does it count people banned from Reddit?

[–] peeweejd@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I left during the blackouts.

I replaced it with a number of communities, but I still need to use reddit for NFL news. I'm a massive fan and that community is not going to make the jump

I lurk but Reddit is completely dead to me. I haven't used it more than once or twice since the API change

I mostly have. However I do not spend anywhere near as much time on Lemmy as I did on reddit. When all the third party stuff started going down I really started to assess how I used the Internet and had to change things. I was using Sync for Reddit on Average 2.5 hours a day which is just insane. Over the course of a decade it was like a year of real time and was really eye opening how much time I was wasting.

Now I set an app timer for Sync for Lemmy for 1 hour a day I rarely hit it.

I do check reddit, but I do not have an app installed, it's mostly to check something specific rather than endlessly scroll.

i only use Reddit for technical questions on communities that don't exist on Lemmy or are inactive. I'm not using Reddit anymore for browsing but I'm not gonna artificially limit myself from that great resource for some performative activism

[–] Noedel@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Recently discovered revanced could patch boost and I'm back on Reddit.

After a few months on just Lemmy, I found too much of the content was about Linux, foss, and how much the internet sucks now.

I use Lemmy to browse, and Reddit for search. E.g. If I want to checkout general online stuff people are discussing/sharing this is the place. If I want to look up frying pan recommendations I google "reddit le creuset"

[–] Ichiro_kun@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I did. 💀

I am read ~70% lemmy vs 30% reddit. In my opinion this is because community is important. And reddit-community still be a big and active 🤷🏻‍♂️
