I unsubbed from all reddits that don't support the resistance except for a few small ones. And I go to lemmy for most things
No, I do not. Except when I'm looking for something and reddit is the only place where I can find my answers. But that rarely happens.
Only rss of gamedeals and buildapcsales. Those are functionally useful subs. Good deal alerts.
Have no interest in anything else like random discussions in hobbies or games or television or shows or sports which are stuff that are easy to quit. Even /r/Heat family I have left behind despite basically no activity here. Those are more entertainment and don't offer utility. That includes niche subs I enjoyed like gunpla or dedicated tv show or game subs. It just falls into category of entertainment that isn't so useful I need it.
I knew it essentially coming to a close when I didn't have Reddit Enhancement Suite installed anymore.
I do not at all. I’m avoiding even Google Search results that go to Reddit. I have not used Reddit since June 12, other than to fully wipe all of my accounts on June 30. I’ve moved on and it’s been an easier transition than I thought it would be.
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.
NO
Literally just the HFY subreddit and looking for answers to questions about 3d printing etc.
I made a private LibReddit instance so I can still get the news from specific communities that aren't elsewhere.
boost for reddit has become unusable, many subs i frequent are still blackout. i have no real use for reddit any more, ill use the web client for google results when the sub i need isnt gone
this has done wonders for my social media addiction, more tjme spent with my friends on discord rather than doomscrolling reddit
I don't. Since the beginning of this month, I only visited it 2 times where a Google search pointed out a post there, that is it. And even when it pop ups on the Google search result I tend to first check out other links.
Only if a search sends me there and other links aren't giving me what I need
Haven't commented on a single post since I wiped my account. I check the news and world news subreddits and then move on.
Hmm, not really. As I've said before - a lot of the news stuff is also on Ground News, WaPo, Mastodon or Lemmy. There's no great replacement for /r/sysadmin, but that needed replacing as it got to be useless over the last few years. I don't know if there's a /c/changemyview or not, but that isn't necessary.
Actually, I just spend more time doing other stuff for entertainment - read more books, catch up on more podcasts, yes watch more youtube, TV, Movies whatever. Go outside, walk the dog. I'm kind of surprised how much time I can spend on lemmy lol.
I still do, but not in the same capacity.
With the death of BaconReader I don't scroll as much, and just from looking at my front page, I imagine it's not only the summer doldrums that have thinned it out so much. It's just... harder to find good discussion there, and what I do find is often charged in some way, or very thin. So, I stick around for some of the communities that I'm more active in, but I'm also doing things on Lemmy, and a few other places. Honestly, idk that I'll ever full drop Reddit in the same way that I did, say, MySpace, mostly in that there's probably going to be some value somewhere on the site. But, it's certainly not my main source of idle scrolling or engagement anymore.
Also, yes, I know I can still make BR work, but at this point I'll just keep using Reddit in browser with uBlock Origin.
I don’t but if I have a question I’ll google and add site:reddit.com for sure…
I go there through Tedit sometimes when info I need comes up in a search, but I haven't logged in or browsed the site directly since the API protest blackout.
Weird how I seem to have more free time now. Must be a coincidence.
I haven't posted in years, but there is still so much content there. Now though without my favourite app (Joey) I probably will go there less. Even less when they disable old.reddit.com.
Yes, mostly for sharing content here.
Yup for those little weird subs I'm still on.
Only for superstonk and wallstreetbets. I find the fediverse including Mastodon enough for me. I was never a Twitter guy, but I created a Mastodon account on Infosec and it's amazing the knowledge and people you can find out there.
Only in read only mode.
No. I bounce between here and my main Lemmy instance. I prefer KBin in general, but there are already usable apps for Lemmy.
I purged my feed from over 150 subs I would spend the first and last few hours each day browsing and commenting from my bed to less than 20 I lurk every few days from my pc, almost all of which are gaming communities with no fediverse replacements.
I don't really go to reddit since the apps got killed and I refuse to use the pile of garbage the official app is. Aside from a few niche subs there really isn't much to see there anymore, especially in summer. It's all edgy kids and bots now for the most part.Whatever sense of community there once was is long gone.
It still comes up on google when you need to figure out an obscure issue and is usually the best answer, although I'm trying to limit it. Other than that, I deleted my account and am long gone.
Occasionally. From my desktop. Not really from my phone anymore. I like lemmy well enough but there still isn't as much content especially for niche subjects.
only for 1 subreddit, 1001albumsgenerator. i have unfinished business there
Been 16 days since I last checked Reddit. Lemmy has been a refreshing experience.
Yeah, there are a few subs that haven't made the transition.
I think I'm like most people here on this one. I avoid Reddit unless I absolutely need to find an answer to a question that can only be solved by a random saint from, like, 5 years ago
I do because there are a lot of valuable infos, but I 'm deliberately not voting and commenting.
Yes, I will only switch when this link,
/c/knitting
Shows every post to /c/knitting on every instance, in chronological order. Without having to subscribe to every instance, without having to create multireddit equivalent.
Just give me lemmyverse's entire /c/knitting
Only to check /r/canadapublicservants and /r/urf, otherwise I'm avoiding it. Unfortunately it still is often one of the best sites in search results
Only if it turns up in a search result for something. I refuse to install their crappy app on my phone and Lemmy scratches enough of the itch that I haven’t been tempted back
I do on my desktop, but my mobile browsing (which is the vast majority) is all lemmy.
I still use it for dinner subs that moved over to lemmy, but couldn't grow much. Like 40klore.
Not since July 1st…. For a few days I was refreshing google and yahoo news habitually but so glad I finally found lemmy
I had a web result that the result I was looking for was on Reddit. I guess that's technically using it, but I wasn't logged in and didn't touch anything. It still counts as a visitor though, and I'm disappointed in that.
I’ve only popped in to check on a drama once since.
Lemmy is working for me. There’s less content and commenting but it’s noticeably picking up in the last few days.
I’ve been there a couple of times from random search results. Haven’t browsed it since July 30th and honestly, I’m kinda surprised how little I care that I left.
