I have not fully dropped lemmy but I still use it to check out the latest (tech and tech related) news. Lemmy is good at that aspect these days.

Wait, Lemmy? Or Reddit? πŸ€”

It depends on your definition of "dropped." Most people who moved from Reddit to Lemmy don't fall into the category of deleting their account and switching over 100%, rather Lemmy has filled the role of Reddit for most but not all of their browsing.

I look at Reddit on Desktop and I use Lemmy on mobile.

I check in on reddit every once in a while via the app called Comet. It's definitely gone back to it's usual self but it feels more impersonal than ever now that I use Lemmy too.

Haven't used reddit since boost went down but I am planning on going back in a couple of weeks/months.

[–] TheMadnessKing@lemdro.id 1 points 2 years ago

I'm pretty sure that not even 1% .

[–] Endorkend@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I check both Reddit and Kbin, have both of them open in pinned tabs.

But I spend a whole lot less time on Reddit than I used to.

And it's not like I now spend the less time I spend there on Kbin either, I'm just mostly beyond browsing it obsessively and do other crap instead.

Same with Twitter.

After I quit Twitter and moved to Mastodon, I do read my feed once or so a day, but compared to a year ago, I barely participate anymore.

I visit Lemmy with sync on my phone and tablet. On pc I still visit reddit. I actually haven't visited anything of Lemmy on pc yet.

The content of Lemmy does feel lacking compared to what reddit used to offer me. And so does the content on reddit actually (feel lacking compared to what reddit used to offer me when I visited it with sync for reddit).

The home tab when logged into the reddit app is just weird, so many subs that I have no interest in seeing are being shown, while subs that I'm actually a member off are shoved down the list. The worst offender for me, was that reddit had decided for me that I should be interested in my countries' fascist sub, just because I'm a member of the pluralist main sub. When I was using the reddit app for a few weeks, I would see racist dog whistle posts daily. So now I don't login into reddit anymore, I just browse it anonymous now.

Less than I thought would to be honest...

[–] fujiwara@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 years ago

I did but I only get on here to kill time at work.

[–] Steak@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

Not 100% but like 95. Still go to Reddit for a couple niche subs

[–] isaachernandez@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I’m out of there for good, but I take a look every once in awhile. That place still looks like it’s thriving. It’s unfortunate.

[–] _stranger_@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

I go back every now and then to search the Cybertruck community for new posts, but that's about it.

Anyone who isn't stupid

[–] Rolive@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 2 years ago

I still use reddit to vent frustrations about life in general. Anything serious/productive goes on Lemmy.

[–] Ignacio@beehaw.org 0 points 2 years ago (8 children)

I deleted my Reddit account some months ago. But if I knew how much toxic is Lemmy becoming into, I wouldn't come here either. Because right now I can't tell the difference between Reddit and Lemmy, to be honest.

When Sync came out I moved to Lemmy. Using that familiar and customizable software made the switch super easy. Nowadays I primarly browse Lemmy but tend to check Reddit for official movie discussions and gaming issues/help, rarely use the web client to that though. RedReader for mobile.

I did but have slowly started going back ...

I did. At first week lemmy was kind of cool. All nerd and cool people. Then normies started to flood with their shitty political posts. So now it's like reddit just in smaller capacity.

[–] bankimu@lemm.ee -2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Well I did, but the community in Lemmy is suffocatingly left leaning for me. So I had to go back to Reddit for fresh air. (Never have I thought I'd go back to Reddit because some other community is even more left, but here we are.)

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

You thought Reddit was left leaning?
