I left during the blackout. I use reddit occasionally for specific questions I can't find anywhere else. It's a shit hole, but an old and useful shit hole.

I pretty much did already, still check on 2 or 3 communities when I am front of a computer but I hope lemmy while become more active and I will not feel like I am missing out.

I'm replacing Reddit with Lemmy.

Mostly, yeah.

Im using this ios app Memmy. It reminds me so much of Apollo. Now just need to give some so all the communities switch to lemmy. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/memmy-for-lemmy/id6450204299

Trying to. It’s hard because I’m super lonely and want to connect with people. But it’s still really new here and not a lot of users are here yet.

I would like to, but let's be real, i had a question about a game today and i went to Reddit because that game deosn't have a Lemmy community.

Reddit has more people, more content, and more history. Only an actual collapse will make Lemmy a superior alternative.

Yes, I am and I have. I have up my reddit account a month ago.

My third eldest, Larissa, she was talking about this just last week. She is very smart, I’ll give her that, because she was the first in the family to go to university. And she passed with distinctions. So we’re all quite proud of her.

I made my account yesterday so I can't really say if I will stick with Lemmy in the long term, but for now mostly yes, most of the communities I like are here and Lemmy feels a lot nicer than Reddit. But there are a few communities that are still only on Reddit so I'm using both

[–] Cyder@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago

I prefer Squiggy

[–] Zellith@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Deleted my comments and account and now I'm here. Though Im kinda trying to get off social media and so I'm on lemmy sparingly. Trying to be more productive with my time.

[–] Philo@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

I am but I'm not sure why everyone complaint of ads but still using Reddit doesn't just use Reddit Revancec?

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

Yes. This exactly.

[–] meat_glue@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Already have.

Yes, not sticking around while it slowly becomes a worse and worse user experience

[–] tiny_electron@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

I uninstalled Reddit when Infinity died

[–] cyberpiggy@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

It's really not far off, Reddit is on borrowed time and so is twitter and the rest....
