Yeah, but with RedReader. There's a few niche subs I like that aren't well-established here yet.

If I have to Google something, and the answer is on Reddit, then yes.
Yes, I'm using Lemmy on my phone but on my lunch at work and stuff on my computer it's Reddit still. I am evangelizing Lemmy though.
I really used reddit to lurk and scroll when I was bored. If I can't use the app I'm used to, there is no reason for me to return. Especially with the way they have been treating the community, I havent been back for about 3 weeks. I downloaded a lemmy app and put that in the same spot as rif was, and I havent looked back.
Nah. Iβm more casual, and didnβt even need it for specific information. I havenβt been back in weeks. Plus, I really like the more civil environment Iβve found on the instances Iβve joined. Additionally, the users are actually listened to, and the mods/devs are genuinely trying to create a better experience. Itβs something I want to be a part of, rather than the dumpster fire of greed, anger, and manipulation that is reddit.
I haven't been back on Reddit since shortly before July 1. I enjoy the vibe here right and the novelty of something new hasn't worn off yet.
Some subreddits I was more into like Destiny 2's and Diablo 4 don't seem as busy here so I have a feeling I may need to lurk over there still from time to time.
Redreader is still working.
no. I mostly used Reddit from mobile, and since Apollo went down, I just used it once from my laptop to find a link. Other than that, 100% lemmy using Wefwef.
I am lurking and watching the dumpster fire at this point , reddit went full Authoritarian on Dndmemes and sacked a bunch of cool mods because we turned it into a goblin porn subreddit for the shutdown/blackout and the admins did not like that... so I am posting here now and watching Reddit burn in the distance.
I've visited a couple of times. My preferred app (relay) is still working, but I'm guessing I'll jump ship completely once relay is affected, Lemmy has mostly replaced my Reddit habits anyway.
I do, but only to support FOSS users in some communities that are not here [yet]. There is no opnsense community here in Lemmy, so when I see questions there in reddit, I help where I can.
However, my "bio" or whatever it is called in reddit, clearly states that I have moved to Lemmy permanently.
I am actually considering creating a opnsense community here and hoping that Franco will come and join, and take over ownership.
Maybe once a week using RiF ReVanced for
- Checking two small subreddit
- Delete comments that haven't been visible anymore but now are again (because I deleted newer comments, now the older ones starting to appear again)
Same here. I'm not actively browsing or looking for information from Reddit, but if it's unavoidable, then so be it. I can't ignore the wealth of information still there.
I still use it. The HFY community is still on Reddit and I enjoy reading the stories.
The API changes haven't really affected my experience since I always browsed Reddit on my desktop through the browser.
Haven't been there since the blackout, don't miss it. I've always gone there with desktop browser running uBO so I never did see adds there except for inline stuff once in a while. That's one nice thing about Lemmy, looks exactly the same whether the blocker is on or off.
I've only touched Reddit when it comes up when I google something. Haven't used it for anything else for the past month or so.
I do for a few communities where I want news updates that doesn't seem to have anything comparable here yet.
Other than that though, I try to limit any mindless scrolling to lemmy (managed to cut that down a lot)
Boost was the only thing that made it tolerable, I couldn't use the official reddit app even if I wanted to
Logged out, sometimes I use rif to check on some subreddits.
Not going to delete my 9 year old account because if I do that they will keep all the comments.
I only use it when googling questions that I know reddit has the answer for. And I hate it the whole time. I spend only enough time on there to get my answer then immediately close the web page. Call me silly or what you will, but I personally want to give as little interaction with that website as possible now. Fuck u/spez
As for the drama, I subscribe to a couple Lemmy instances that share the drama through Lemmy, that way I can be in the loop without having to be on the actual website.
Mostly using libreddit, when I need to refer to a specific thread. Otherwise, most of my browsing is in Lemmy.
Also, feel free to have a look at the search function on the sidebar, this question has been asked quite a lot lately, such as https://lemmy.ml/post/1846338
I've looked maybe a handful of times over the past couple weeks, mostly to look at /r/modcoord and /r/save3rdpartyapps. Even then, I used libreddit. Other than that, I've not visited for really any other reason.
Lemmy + Mastodon is doing a good enough job being my daily time waster. There's definitely less content here but I am but one man, it's not like I could go through all of Reddit's bot-generated daily content anyway.
I visit some subs occasionally on old reddit, but have never logged in again. Fuck u/spez.
Some of the specific communities are there but not here or barely alive here (like my phone's brand) so I'm visiting them from PC. Spez gets no moni because I'm always using unblock there though
I just did some searching for the best grind size settings for my Aeropress. Some of the search results led to Reddit, I clicked on them and felt a bit dirty lol. Funnily enough a few of results still led to private groups. Reddit will still be a source of information about niche topics. Let's hope Lemmy becomes that source instead...
Stopped using on June 30, deleted content. Nuked account on July 9 (10th cake day).
Need a replacement for r/xwingtmg and come October, hopefully c/anes will be as game day active as r/canes, but fuck Spez.
No, I uninstalled Boost and Infinity about a month ago and haven't looked back.
I used to check reddit everyday, some days I'd spend hours browsing. I think I've checked it twice since Apollo went down?
Nope
Almost never.
Sometimes when I need to troubleshoot or am looking for specific information, then I will add reddit. It still shines there.
But don't have a login anymore and I don't visit daily. Lemmy has become my main now.
Yes, but much less than I used to. When I donβt have a particular goal in mind and just want to doomscroll a bit, I find myself checking Lemmy first, and only if I run out of things to read, which I usually donβt, do I move on to Reddit.
There are still some niche communities that are active on Reddit and not here. So I do still go over there on purpose for those.
I still use it once per day, late in the evening as there are some international communities which are still lacking, I look forward to completely stopping to do it
Yeah I check hydroponics subs occasionally.
Hadnβt been in 3 days besides accidentally opening Apollo. Iβm going to stop by one of these days and edit and delete my comments and posts.
i still go on it. but i am migrating from reddit
No, I have a couple small communities that I have pull into an RSS reader that still works somehow, but I stay logged out and never comment. 12 year account with 29k karma and I quit cold turkey and mostly went back to RSS feeds.
I think its been almost a month, since I intentionally went to Reddit. More than 3 weeks anyway.
So, personally i'm done wirh reddit. But i still go there every once in a while to target about ten very specific subs which aren't even remotely replicated in the fediverse for the foreseable future. See, there's this chatgroup i maintain with my not so ultra tech savvy parents and a handful of goofy dog/cat/bird videos a day brightens their work days with a minute of joy. They would never browse reddit or even the fediverse and this tradition came at basically no "extra cost" since i scrolled reddit any day anyways. Now i don't want to stop bettering their lives out of my idealism against reddit so i bite the bullet for now. I'm not engaging in reddit anymore, just go straight to some subs and that's about it. Since this is content often posted by casual users very much like my parents i doubt we will see a big influx of this kind of content in the fediverse any time soon, if ever. So yeah, i still go there.
Just check nsfw but images hosted by Reddit that are NSFW are slow to load and seem to have been slow for quite a while, so my rate at which I check it tapered from few times a day to now once or twice a month
I have reduced my usage by about 90%. The hockey community here is just not active enough for my hockey news needs.
I slipped maybe twice by accident via google search results but thatβs it. Until I need to get opinions to buy something it will be okay I guess.
I use it to check anime episode discussions, it will probably get worse with time but its the only place I trust to read the comments. Also I still put reddit at the end of the search bar cuz the internet right now is just so full of useless articles about everything
I logged in once to look up something I had saved, but the mobile site is so irritating to use I gave up.
