Asklemmy

I only check Reddit now for a game sub which, while on Lemmy, doesn't have critical mass yet (and I'm not sure it will).

I was looking to leave anyways. As soon as I saw the API changes I shut down my 10 year old, 3 comment account and moved here.

Yes, but I've found myself browsing a lot more on different sites too. Instead of opening RiF to find stuff, I just look at YouTube or redgifs directly. Turns out I never needed a middleman for that, so there's no need to use the fediverse for that now.

The important news and discussion is plentiful here, so that'll be my main purpose of opening wefwef or whatever app is better.

RIF user for over a decade, Reddit is dead to me. Haven't looked back.

I havent deleted my reddit account, but Im using reddit a lot less now

trying

Not by itself, no.

My current replacements for reddit are:

1. A kbin account for serious-posting
2. This Lemmy account for the shitposting (and for communities on lemmy.ml which blanket bans all kbin instances)
3. Tildes.net for the extra-serious-posting
4. (Eventually) an RSS reader
5. Libreddit and a redirector extension for search results

I personally prefer to keep my shitposting from my serious-posting and I also wanted to see what kbin was like, so it kinda worked out well enough (aside from .ml)

Already done.

I gave Lemmy a shot after the API debacle on reddit. First week was bumpy with lots of timeouts and servers that weren't able to handle all the new users from reddit.

It quickly improved. So much so that I went ahead and deleted my reddit account.

For browsing I have converted to Lemmy. For getting answers from a Google search I still click on the Reddit option. Lemmy doesn't show on a Google search and other forums are useless for information. Minus stack overflow.

Preaching to the choir to ask this here, tbh

but, yes.

yes. been on reddit for almost 10 years, and all of those were on RIF. Miss it but i hope this will be a great new place to call home :) hopefully more folks migrate over

Lenny?

I made it cozy already at Squabbles.io, but I'm giving Lemmy a try. Since Joey still works I do browse Reddit now and then.

I use lemmy occasionally. I do feel the impact of a significantly smaller community though. A lot of the subreddits I would regularly check are not even here. So unfortunately for now, I’m forced to use the official app. Tried the RSS route too, but it seems it would be too expensive for me.

I’m sure the lemmy community will continue to grow, so I’ll stick around.

In early June I decided to give Lemmy the old test drive, and I haven't left. Bye Reddit.

I don't even know anyone named Lenny. o.O

Joking aside for the most part I'm already pretty much more on here than there at this point. Only thing I still go there for is the one or two communities that I'm part of there that have no counterpart here. r/typewriters mainly.

Yes. Fuck bullies.

So far yep! Why not?

Reddit has no loyalty to me so why should I have to it?

Ultimately I just want some interesting useless funny shit to look at. Doesn't matter where it comes from.

This is my first Lemmy comment ever!

I already have. There are some specialized subreddits I still peek at, but otherwise it's Lemmy all the way.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Trying. But the experience isn't all there yet.

I'm trying. Since boost stopped working. I have been on reddit twice. It's a painful shit experience now and I hate it.

But also. Lemmy isnt quite enough yet. But it's helping me stay off the web more.

FB sucks. Reddit sucks and lemmy isn't itching my need for information.

Oh well. :).

Please dont tell anyone how I live

Yep, left reddit and came to lemmy.
