No, I uninstalled Boost and Infinity about a month ago and haven't looked back.

I logged in once to look up something I had saved, but the mobile site is so irritating to use I gave up.
I donβt have Apollo anymore so I donβt go to Reddit anymore from mobile, but i use it from time to time on desktop
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 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...
I visit some subs occasionally on old reddit, but have never logged in again. Fuck u/spez.
Yeah unfortunately. There are some subs that haven't migrated over yet and some subs that are active that have really useful info for me (school, language learning, etc.)
Occasionally, but always logged out and with an adblocker. It seems to get worse every time I check it.
I don't browse it (I have a redirector rule that links me right out of Reddit), but if I need to access it for something, I just tack on old.
as a bypass.
Yeah I check hydroponics subs occasionally.
Lemmy still has some issues that need to be addressed for it to fully replace Reddit for my needs
Be honest, do you still use reddit?
If I do a web search I'll still go to reddit if it as a useful thread but I don't actively go on it.
Sometimes for fixes and stuff but not much anyomore
I used to check reddit everyday, some days I'd spend hours browsing. I think I've checked it twice since Apollo went down?
Nah, sometimes google tries to make me enter but I just scroll a lil more and use any other result.
Nope! Not once since the blackout began.
Nope. Left as soon as Apollo ended.
Only went back to transfer all my subscriptions using the Voyager tool - found under settings βmigrate subredditsβ.
On June 29 I used a different tool to delete all my posts on Reddit. Iβm leaving my empty account there as a form of protest.
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.
Nope
i still go on it. but i am migrating from reddit
I stopped entirely. When I draw a fanart of something I'll post it, but I haven't drawn any fanart recently.
Nope. Without RIF it's painful to look at.
I have not used it since some time in early June.
I have technically logged into my account -- but only because I've opened Relay Pro. In spite of everything, it appears to still update everything, and the last app patch update message I saw said that they had implemented changes to reduce API usage (this after July 1).
But I haven't interacted with reddit beyond that, and I don't plan to. It's not about anger at reddit anymore either -- I actively like Lemmy better. It reminds me of old reddit.
nope but my account is not deleted. Have not had time to follow up on my data request. mostly because of kbin :)
No. I've completely switched to lemmy and couldn't be happier. I'm actually surprised by how much I don't miss reddit, I thought it would be tougher to break out
no
I do, but not nearly as much as Lemmy.
I used to go to reddit for everything. To scroll aimlessly, just to look at aesthetic photos, to read stories...I even had a multi reddit for text based subs, and a third party app on my watch so I could read text based reddit posts at work.
Now, I only go to reddit if i need the resources of a specific sub (earlier i had a question about an app so i went to their sub to browse and see if there was any advice) or if i'm cross posting content to lemmy to get my communities going.
when i just want to scroll and see what's new, ive been coming straight to lemmy every time.
i'm really trying to interact more too.
Yeah, briefly, but the quality has dropped and I usually just switch back to Lemmy since it feels different. Also, only until Infinity for Reddit stops working; no idea why it still works but it's a matter of time.
Nope, been browsing Lemmy since July 1 when I was no longer able to use RiF.
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 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.
No
Yes, though to a much lesser extent than I used to. Sometimes itβs just through web searches that lead to Reddit, though I use Libreddit front-end for that.
And other times, itβs specific subreddits about TV shows. The level and frequency of discussion on Lemmy sadly is not there yet for popular shows, and nonexistent for niche shows.
No, and I blocked it on my DNS server so I don't accidentally go there either
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
I pretty much only use it to add at the end of a google search. I feel like lemmy might be lacking in hits if I tried that
I still check out a couple hobby subs every day or two (via mobile browser, not the app). And if I'm looking for a certain type of information or advice, im still typing "[info desired] reddit" into google.
