Got suspended with no explanation from a heavily used professional sub...asked for an explanation and was banned/ suspended (2 different accounts) Appealed ban, ask for explanation...nothing, just more ban/suspensions. ....deleted 2 accounts, ridiculous.
I still go back to reddit for specialized subs which don't have equivalents here, but that's only in my work desktop.
I also delete my replies after a few days
All my mobile browsing is done on sync and I'm here 75% of the time
I set on Lemmy.zip during the blackout protest on Reddit, and haven't gone back to it. Don't miss it. Lemmy has grown a lot in the past few months. It's only a fraction of the Reddit userbase size, but steadily filling out and getting better.

I dropped reddit and I don't really use lemmy that much either
Stopped (regularly) browsing it mid-June. Still haven't deleted my accounts because I am still not sure if all of my comments and posts over there have been truly cleaned off.
It's a pain when search results point me to Huffman's site, but with the Privacy Redirect add-on redirecting me to an alternative frontend, and failing that, manually checking the archived version of the page, I've mostly eliminated any visits to that place.
I did, and I like it over here better. Sometimes I look at a reddit post if it turns up in search, but otherwise I like the culture here better.

Does it count people banned from Reddit?

I don't know how you could track uninstalls outside of informal polls. I'd consider myself as having fully dropped Reddit for Lemmy, but on occasion I'll follow a link on Lemmy to the Reddit site.
Monthly active users gives a rough estimate but doesn't account for people registering on multiple servers and alt accounts (and of course we can't forget the occasional toxic spammer). But subtracting that from Reddit traffic barely puts a dent in it.
I think Reddit will stay a similar size or continue to grow a bit, but overall quality of it has been circling the drain for a while now. I don't think the IPO is going to help at all with that, only make it worse.
I use both for different types of contents. Reddit has so many small niche communities that are currently still irreplaceable for me.

Fuck em.
We need so someone that can count all the "I did" messages and use that as a crappy metric lol.
Count me in.
Recently discovered revanced could patch boost and I'm back on Reddit.
After a few months on just Lemmy, I found too much of the content was about Linux, foss, and how much the internet sucks now.
I've been slowly migrating over. I'm using relay so once that dies or goes paid I'll be here exclusively.
Used a script to delete all my comments. Nuked two ten year old accounts.
Commenting for sake of a headcount lol
I'm no expert but best guess would be to get an estimate of all the new Lemmy users - there seem to be a few floating around - then run a poll in a few instances and estimate based on those results.
