I changed my reddit link to lemmy but kept the snoo symbol.

I don't really visit too much, I will sweep by a few times a week or so. Reddit I only go to when Google takes me there, which is often enough thst I had to install the official turd of an app.

But I do t have a user over there anymore, so I am not logged in.

I did that too and don't regret it ;)

I did not dropped reddit completely, occasionally going in there through google searches but ever since the api fiasco I've never visited the site directly. I still haven't deleted my account but didn't used it since then and is planning to delete it. Lemmy does not have a lot of content and the niche communities compared to reddit. That is not a bad thing though and instead it had stopped me from mindless scrolling I picked up from using reddit.

When the blackout started I deleted sync for reddit and a month ago I heard of lemmy, and now I'm back on sync, but for lemmy this time

I mostly stopped using it when RIF announced they'd drop support. Deleted my account and everything, although I do still pop into subs that haven't migrated over.

I use it for one of the niche communities I usually went to. But other than that, I stopped voting other subs. So much rage bait and bigotry. It's only gotten worse since people started leaving. I just instantly go to the sub I want, check out some posts, which sometimes only take about a minute, and then leave.

I miss some of the content but certainly not Reddit the company.

[–] Vlhacs@reddthat.com 2 points 2 years ago

I've been almost exclusively on Lemmy, but even after several months still miss user content on some of the more niche communities like my local sports team subreddit. I'll still hold out for a bit longer, if only to see what else is out there, but the itch is real.

I deleted my Reddit account (24k karma, I think, about 10 years old?) and went with Lemmy. It's fine, though I miss a couple gaming subs.

I Reddit exclusively on my desktop now, not on mobile where I did most of my browsing. I also pared back my usage to fewer communities.

I use Discuit primarily now, checking Lemmy (Beehaw mostly) very occasionally.

Well I kept using it until Infinity died, which was only at the start of this month!

If I do decide to go back, it will be by compiling the infinity APK with my own API key, but I'm not feeling much of an urge to bother at the moment.

I sort of did. I still have an account, but I only use it in the browser and very rarely, from like hourly use to maybe once a week when I can remember.

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

dropped reddit, yes. For lemmy? Not sure yet.

[–] forgotmylastusername@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I've looked at the site but I don't contribute anymore. I've made a few comments telling people to look at another site for answers to their technical questions. Dropping seeds that will branch away from reddit.

The popular sort for Canada increasingly resembles voat. When it was becoming overrun by the far right dog whistles. The signature right wing botted subreddits seem to be a mainstay on the top sorts. That says a lot about how it's going.
