Asklemmy

Yep, left it cold turkey when the protests started as 99.95% of my browsing was done through Apollo.

Yeah, well, Reddit still has a lot of niche stuff and smaller communities. Lemmy is still growing at a fast pace and will get there one day, but for now - it's better then Reddit for tech/linux stuff.

For browsing I have converted to Lemmy. For getting answers from a Google search I still click on the Reddit option. Lemmy doesn't show on a Google search and other forums are useless for information. Minus stack overflow.

I'm trying to and succeeding for the most part. I find a lot of my Google searches still lead to Reddit.

So far this year I have gone Twitter -> Mastodon and now Reddit -> Lemmy. Not all the people/subs I used to interact with have moved, but I don't miss them - well maybe some of the games subs but I'm sure at some point they'll appear. In general more than happy with the move :)

yes. I can't understand why anyone wouldn't

Yes. I got off reddit a while ago due to privacy and censorship issues on top of pushing/promoting content that annoyed me or I didn't have any interest in. Been on the fediverse for a while and enjoyed that and was happy to hear there's a federated reddit alternative.

I gave Lemmy a shot after the API debacle on reddit. First week was bumpy with lots of timeouts and servers that weren't able to handle all the new users from reddit.

It quickly improved. So much so that I went ahead and deleted my reddit account.

I'm about a week clean now, content has been really good

Already done.

Maybe if we talked about anything other than other social media sites I would.

Pretty much. I'll def never log in again.

yes. been on reddit for almost 10 years, and all of those were on RIF. Miss it but i hope this will be a great new place to call home :) hopefully more folks migrate over

I havent deleted my reddit account, but Im using reddit a lot less now

Yes, I am now 90% on Lemmy - the new Memmy app for my iPad is close to Apollo-quality and Liftoff on my Android phone (S21) is “almost” as good as Sync for Reddit was.

For Reddit, I am using RSS feeds only to browse for any posts that interest me - I am trying to not give them traffic if at all possible.

The content on Lemmy is getting better every day!

Partially.... It's similar situation that I have with Twitter and Mastodon. Simply, there are subreddits that not have (yet) the equivalent on Lemmy or refused to move to Lemmy (or moved to Radle)

Nope I'm replacing with Lemmy. 😝

RIF user for over a decade, Reddit is dead to me. Haven't looked back.

Boost stopped working

This works great

No reason to go anywhere

Not by itself, no.

My current replacements for reddit are:

1. A kbin account for serious-posting
2. This Lemmy account for the shitposting (and for communities on lemmy.ml which blanket bans all kbin instances)
3. Tildes.net for the extra-serious-posting
4. (Eventually) an RSS reader
5. Libreddit and a redirector extension for search results

I personally prefer to keep my shitposting from my serious-posting and I also wanted to see what kbin was like, so it kinda worked out well enough (aside from .ml)

I have replaced it as my active site,

So there is still stuff that's more active on reddit, like football news, but I am now just a lurker there I don't contribute I just read if there is an update then if it's relevant I post it from there to Lemmy, so we can start building a community here.
