Trying to

TBH I could have continued using Reddit as it was in may. Now I'm basically kicked off of a Reddit experience that doesn't treat me like livestock in a cage (the official app). So here I am.

Yes. It's different enough that I am not taking it as a one to one replacement, but moving on to a quieter, calmer place.

I thought I might use Tumblr for another angle of replacing part of reddit, but it doesn't seem to be the place for me. I'm not a rabid fan of any one thing, so it seems like so much hype and I don't like the lack of conversation there.

This place has the threaded comments, and respectful conversation.

I did. I had one sub that I wanted to keep up with so I added them into my RSS reader and spend my time on Lemmy.

with my 3rd party app of choise diem my reddit usage so no more reddit for me

Not replacing. But trying to be honest. And I'm liking Lemmy with "Connect" app pretty much.

Can't believe Reddit can't pay to any of these Devs to revamp their shitty low performance app.

But anyway. I'm like the idea of the Lemmy instances etc.

Yes

I’m trying to, but finding a good client and trying to find replacement communities isn’t as straight forward as Reddit was.

I’ll be spending more time on here since I got a random 3 day ban without a reason. This has been happening every few months.

Yep, there's just a couple communities stuck on Reddit that I still look at, but overall I'm around 80% Lemmy 20% Reddit now.

For actual conversations, yeah. I still check one subreddit daily for game leak updates, but that's pretty much it.

Starting the process… now!

Who is Lenny?

Yup. I was checking in with reddit for a while there but have stopped. I like the vibe of this place so far.

Well, this is nice, hello

I haven’t been on Reddit since Apollo went dark. I’m done with it except for a couple specific communities until similar ones are available here.

I'm sussing out Lemmy as a replacement. I still go to Reddit but I've pretty much stopped all interactions other than just reading . Reddit has now become a place to fill the blank time in my day between the times I'm busy. Hopefully Lemmy will become a replacement soon than later.

Yep. I was on Reddit for 12+ years, and used Apollo for many years recently. I never used “new” Reddit or the official app. Quit and uninstalled Apollo a few days before the 1st.

Lemmy feels like home. And the fediverse concept is super interesting to me.

I registered to try it out. Looks nice so far. Hopefully more users switch and start filling this place with content.

I just use both. Lemmy for general browsing and Reddit when I want a more specific community that isn't around yet.

I was never a 3rd party app user really as I just use old.reddit through the browser on my phone so until old.reddit is killed off I'll probably continue to use both. Once thats gone though I won't be using Reddit, new UI is truly awful

Now that Boost no longer works, I have no reason to go to Reddit. Lemmy all the way at this point.

Yes, for sure. Felt like Reddit where going downhill for a long time. This frog is finally jumping out of the pot.

Yeah, deleted RIF early and just pretend it doesn't exist. I'll probably use it if a useful answer pops up on Google, but not for scrolling.

Lemmy and Threads will have to fill the gap for now, but if they grow I don't see a problem at all.

I came here before June 15th and Lemmy seems more alive every day. I only ever used Reddit's official app but I haven't been back since the API changes took place.

Yeah
