Memes

Not sure exactly when it happened, but sometime in the past 3-4 years reddit just became not-reddit. It seemed to draw a more Facebook-esque audience than in prior years. There is still some good content there, but its simply not what it used to be.

Well I'm like 70% here, and the last 30% is through a cracked Reddit client without ads or tracking (shhh, I'll never admit that it exists again)

I still go to reddit... for the porn.

Personally, there are some smaller communities that exist on Reddit that just don't exist on Lemmy, or have inactive communities. The other option for some of those communities is Twitter, so I'd much rather just check Reddit. I also don't expect my local towns subreddit to move to Lemmy from Reddit. I think it's less about returning to Reddit and more so wanting to participate in small communities that exist in Reddit.

Because I still need it to access older repair guides and ask people on fixing stuff from cars and household things to study material and that community simply isn't as big here. I use lemmy with boost much more but I still use some services on reddit outside of that nothing else to do on there. So no need to judge, you are expecting a 5m community to have as much information and technical knowhow as a 150m user base. You can have a ferarri 458 you occasionally use when needed for the track ay and still daily a toyota prius.

Only time I think I've read it these days is when I have to look something up and the first result is a fucking Reddit page from 50 years ago discussing what I was looking up. Admittedly I probably still be using it if I hadn't been banned from the whole site on a trumped-up charge.

It's funny because I wasn't even using a 3rd party app so this didn't really affect me but it was better to leave reddit then instead of waiting for something that will affect me. That and I love open source.

I'm at least on it a lot less since I can't use it on my phone.

I delet my reddit. But I made another. The things is I don't use it anymore. It's just that I needed to ask a question on a sub -_-

Well I almost use only lemmy, but I can't always use it. There is still things that I need on reddit.

That why I still use YouTube and google. I have discover others solutions. But somes content like music video and important channel I love are only on YouTube. It's not that easy to be totally free of all this big websites

My tough is that we should mostly use website like Lemmy on daily basis and use other app/website to get the things that are still lacking. Also try to support Lemmy and other free of companies/decentralized website and promotes them to our family, friends and people's that we meet online (without insisting or becoming like a secret because it won't help on the long terms. )

Revanced let's you patch your own API key into old third party apps 🙈

I need better moderator tools and then I'll move my whole community

I left reddit after a few weeks of getting any useful info off my saved list. Honesty I've been happier these last couple months. Now I only visit reddit( with an ad blocker, because they ain't making a penny off me) to read help and old opinion threads when I need the info.

I deleted my reddit account.

Heil spez

I may protest the cost of groceries, but I still buy groceries.

And I'm finding the exact same type of BS here on Lemmy as I do on Reddit.

Only for the porn though xD
