Asklemmy

If a search directs me there or if there is some news that I really need to check. I have abandoned the account.

Nope, I stopped browsing Reddit the moment they killed RIF. Now I only get on it if it has the answer to something I googled.

Only to view NSFW images when I really don't have any other option. I don't have an account anymore though so usually it's not worth the trouble. Lemmy really just doesn't have the diversity reddit did with that yet.

Within the last month or so, I've stumbled upon reddit links a total of ~3 times. It's still damn useful for looking up info and the best links on Google are often reddit. Ublock origin was enabled of course.

My pc is logged in with my reddit account. Few Google results take me to reddit, I use only that time. I don't visit reddit to see what's happening there.

I quit Reddit as soon as it came out how much they wanted to charge Christian for running Apollo. Joined up on /kbin and have been incredibly happy with it.

Only when I'm googling something that points to reddit. But even then not really as I'm using an extension that redirects all reddit links to their webarchive version.

RIF was my app for Reddit so once that went down I've cut it like 99%. Similarly I'm there now for questions that I can only seem to find there unfortunately but not logged in since.

I don't visit the homepage or use my mobile client. But it still pops up in searches and often has answers I need, for now.

I only visit it from a search engine when searching for something. It's still a vast repository of useful content.

Intentionally, only when a search directs me to a Reddit thread. Unfortunately, it's still a great resource in that regard.

Unintentionally, habit has me typing reddit.com before I realize what I'm doing. Otherwise, I try to stay here.

No, and honestly don’t really miss it. Lemmy is fine for what I need it for. Sometimes if I search for an answer I’ll get a result that happens to be on Reddit so if that counts then so be it.

When subs started blacking out and the only posts I were seeing on my feed were from r/hamsters, I cut the chord without looking back. My friends have all tried to find workarounds to be able to use reddit without official means like using apps that get the pass for accessibility and I'm just thinking "imagine going out of your way just to access reddit" 😂

The only subreddits I cared about were very few at that point with how shitty reddit had gotten as a whole, so it wasn't hard.

since baconreader no longer works i stopped using reddit. only time i visited was because of a duckduckgo search result

I used reddit until Sync stopped working, and I haven't been on since, except to delete a bunch of old posts.

only for specific thinks, whrn i was searching for something

fuck no

I lost power last night and had nothing to do... lemmy, sadly, doesn't have as much content yet so I popped in once just to see. Spent like 10 min there with no account since I did delete it and realized it also wasn't showing me much either.

Having an account with everything you like really helps the experience, glad I looked and felt better when it also didn't really give me the fix I wanted. Power is back and I don't forsee myself going back anytime soon, outside very specific google searches where I might find relevant information needed to do my job.

Yes, but I’ve deleted all of my posts & comments.

I needed a tech question answered, and a Reddit post had the exact question I was asking, I clicked on it and the answer had been deleted.

The irony made me laugh.

Until I find most of the equivalent Reddit subs on Lemmy, with their emigrated leading lights, you kind of have to. Like you said, only Reddit has the answers. Startpage: "42? site:reddit.com"

I'm too old to enjoy drama.

Completely out and I had RIF for at least eleven years. They got rid of a part of me; I don't want shit to do with the site anymore. I'd also be out of Facebook if it weren't for messenger. I look to Lemmy for updates on the dumpster fire that is Reddit now.

Reddit is so frustrating to use without Boost so not really.

Yes I do still use reddit, although only to check specific Subreddits. When it comes to mindlessly scrolling through content, however, the Fediverse has replaced Reddit 100% of the time.

I do. My usage has gone down in half, as blue I have Lemmy and the vibes here are nice and I like the concept but it still doesn't come close to Reddit in terms of content and niche subreddits.

Only when I’m searching things on google. Unfortunately Reddit is still a gold mine of technical knowledge that’s not replicated anywhere.

Only on desktop here and there since RES still works. Enjoying Lemmy when on mobile though.

99% Reddit free. If I need an answer or opinion about something niche, I will be there as shortly as possible and already have adblock

Nope, closed account after 5 years and moved to Lemmy

I don’t. I’ll find myself there occasionally because friends still do. I silently judge them as enablers of corporate scummery. I had been talking up Lemmy.world to the point of being insufferable and have stfu since it was hacked.

My usage just plummeted off a cliff after creating a Lemmy account. Infinity for Reddit is still working at the moment but I don't even have the app on my home screen anymore so I rarely open it.

For me, it's still convinient for asking specific questions. The niche communities were filled with people knowing their stuff so the archives are filled with very reflected opinions and knowledge. For example, if I'm about to, say, buy a cooking knife, I'd google "best cooking knife reddit" and there I have it. Without that I'd be stuck with "top 10 cooking knifes articles" which may be influenced by knife companies wanting to promote their product. Of course I could ask that question here too, but I'd have to wait for an answer and those I would get would only be a fragment of what I'm still be able to find in reddits archives. But for everything else I'm very happy here

I used RIF for close 10 years. Comparatively speaking, just trying to browse Reddit via app or in it's browser is straight up r/eyebleach

Only for porn, really.

I still use it for Google searches. For the subreddits that aren't private anymore, it's still a good resource to get reviews from actual human beings. But I made use of Power Delete Suite to both edit and delete all my comments, and I deleted my accounts back in June.

I only visit reddit if I google something and a reddit thread about the problem pops up in the results. Otherwise, I'm completely off reddit.

Almost every subreddits to specific games that I play (Celeste, Hollow Knight, etc), either has no federative alternatives or is still far more active on Reddit. Like 95% of contents I watch does not exist anywhere else.

only if it has an answer to a problem I need an answer to, but I then turn around and leave the second I'm done.

I check in on my university subreddit from time to time but that's about it

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 was following it for the drama involving the blackouts. I logged in today and started browsing around, and can't help but wonder if it's recently become even more polarized and radicalized with regards to absurd, hateful opinions, or if my bias' against it are making it look that way.

Either way, the experience made me feel gross, and it occurred to me that I just don't want to be there anymore.

I honestly still do, though not on my phone.

And more often than not if I’m on my PC I’m working/gaming.

So really, I still go to reddit on my PC, but most of my usage used to be on the phone, now here I am on lemmy, on my phone, taking a shit.

In essence Lemmy has replaced Reddit for me where it really matters.

I did until they killed joey today. Now I have no reason to go back.

Yes with modified Apollo and Boost. But, nowadays, many of my Reddit subs seems get a lot of double post, scam ads. if this problem overwhelms my home feed. I will ditch Reddit

I do not. I thought I would... I even told people such even as I supported the good fight. But, no... I haven't been back.

I guess I'm actually pissed off enough to not give incompetent, shithole billionaires and millionaires that extra win.
