Too many didn't seem to drop their own internal Reddit before coming to Lemmy. brainworms

I did. Fuck reddit.

[-] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 25 points 11 months ago

As soon as they announced the recent API changes, jumped ship, never looked back

[-] makingStuffForFun@lemmy.ml 25 points 11 months ago

I was a heavy reddit user. Don't go there anymore. I'm done. There's just a moral line that was crossed, and that's that. Same with facebook. It's over. Now it's the constant fight to keep google at bay, but that's what it is.

I did so by Nielson ratings logic about 2400 of us?

[-] MrSebSin@sh.itjust.works 13 points 11 months ago

In that case make 4800 of us.

I did. Way less content, but higher quality content.

I cut my Reddit usage by about 90%. I never intend to fully quit while it still offers things I can't get anywhere else.

Lemmy gives me the dose of random scrolling I want and Reddit gives me specific info I need

[-] Colorcodedresistor@lemm.ee 21 points 11 months ago

I made the switch after the API.changes. i wasn't about to endure a bullshit interface. Also. It's been 10~ years of using reddit, as an adult looking to grow, it was time to find new and strange pastures. Lemmy may not be where we all end up, but its a journey and so far being an 'Internet forum surfer' from AOL 4.0 days. things have been a wild ride

[-] circuitfarmer 20 points 11 months ago

I haven't been back. I suspect that may be true for many regular users of Lemmy.

[-] Tomato666 20 points 11 months ago

I did. RIF stopped working

I actually use both. Reddit to watch or partake in nonsensical angry at the internet posts and Lemmy for real discussion in a niche that I fancy.
Lemmy feels like Reddit did 10 years ago.

No Appolo, no reddit for me. I will still go to searches that link there.

[-] simonced@lemmy.one 19 points 11 months ago

I still have my account on Reddit, but have not logged in since the API events.
Very happy to have found Lemmy, with great content and great people.

Same about going from Twitter to Mastodon.

[-] pi3r8@lemmy.world 19 points 11 months ago

I have only been back a handful of times in the browser. Usually when information I need is only on reddit. From someone who used reddit for hours and hours a day I'm shocked how little I miss it. I'm glad it went down the toilet.

I'm now spending 90% of my shit scrolling time here instead of Reddit (using Sync mainly) and I love it!

[-] Tangentism@lemmy.ml 19 points 11 months ago

I was using Reddit Is Fun on mobile and a heavily curated desktop feed and migrated here fully when RiF died.

When I've looked at Reddit on desktop, it feels like a shadow of it's former self in so far as some of the default subs are missing and others just seem filled with the same content reach time I've looked.

While the place won't die overnight, it will become more overrun with bots and karma farmers posting same content over and over.

I stopped using Reddit the moment sync for Reddit died, I occasionally end up in the website when I'm googling for a tech problem

I only use it for sports discussion, as the third party app I use still works with a patched version. If the third party app stops working, I'll stop. It's not like the discussion on Reddit is high quality anyways.

[-] 1984@lemmy.today 17 points 11 months ago

I had forgotten about reddit until I saw this post.

Not using it at all.

[-] CycloneWolf@midwest.social 16 points 11 months ago

I made the switch when RiF died. In all honesty I wish it wasn't necessary, because the niche communities here are a shadow of what Reddit had before the blackouts. And while Reddit had trolls just like Lemmy, it was big enough that you didn't have to share general spaces with them.

You might find your responses here a bit biased.

Left after RiF went down. Stuck with Lemmy, mostly because my consumption of useless doomscrolling was in need of a reduction. Still here, even if lemmy does have a stark difference in user interaction compared to Reddit. This place is slightly less toxic overall, and I think that's worth something.

[-] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 15 points 11 months ago

I mostly did 3 years ago and have kinda nixed most of the rest of my reddit habits once RiF went down. It does move a lot slower, I cannot spend all day browsing askreddit or whatever in a depressive funk. I do still sometimes go on as part of searches for things.

I have no idea how many people though. The number of people on hexbear (daily users) is way lower than r/chapotraphouse at its height, assuming a continuity of community. There would be some people (possibly even a majority) who spend a decent amount of time on both.

[-] Fear_and_loathing@lemmy.world 15 points 11 months ago

I left Reddit after 14 years. Was really sad to see what it had changed into over time.

Now that sync works with lemmy, I pretty much forgot about reddit. I wish there were the same communities, but I figure it's just a matter of time.

[-] ZephyrFox@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago

I still visit Reddit, but I stopped participating- I don't post, comment, or vote.
