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
Well, this is nice, hello
Yes. I used both for a while but Reddit got quiet and no point in using Reddit without the apps.
Havenβt quit Reddit yet, but I am only posting or commenting to Lemmy and I exhaust the feed here before browsing Reddit.
Iβm not highly involved in any communities there, else Iβd attempt a mass migration.
Yes
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.

100%....Havent even looked back since last Friday around 7 when RIF stopped working...spent a couple hours finding Lemmy and eventually Liftoff, I have a new home now
Trying. But the experience isn't all there yet.
To about 90% I have. Some communities still simply don't exist or are essentially dead, so for the times where I need something really specific or just a general content fix I still wander over. But it's been a fraction of the time I spent there previously.
Yup , havenβt been back to Reddit since Apollo went dark.
Please dont tell anyone how I live
Other than some specific subs, yes
For actual conversations, yeah. I still check one subreddit daily for game leak updates, but that's pretty much it.
Yes. I stopped using Reddit during the blackouts and havenβt turned back. Lemmy so far has been a good replacement in all ways. Fuck spez!
Infinity is still working at the moment but today I removed it from my home screen and replaced with a Lemmy app. There isn't a community replacement for every subreddit I follow just yet but hopefully Lemmy and other Fediverse services will continue to grow.
Slowly but surely. I can no longer check porn subs on Joey for Reddit so I might try to accelerate the migration.
Not totally. Reddit is a shithole but it's my shithole
I registered to try it out. Looks nice so far. Hopefully more users switch and start filling this place with content.
