I used reddit for exactly two things, memes and news. Lemmy has become my home for memes, and I downloaded a separate link aggregator for news. And with those two satisfied, I have no issues leaving behind reddit. It was just handy to have an all in one, and lemmy could definitely get there.

What's the news aggregator you downloaded?

i just replaced the Reddick icon with lemmy

[–] Llamajockey@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

Yeah, once I replaced RiF with the Jerboa icon it's like muscle memory Day 2 and I'm already used to jerboa/Lemmy/feddiverse whatever you wanna call it lol

Lemmy has replaced everything reddit was for me, so I just deleted the app

[–] LilBagOfBunnies@beehaw.org 13 points 1 year ago

I've done the same thing, but I think I'm finally used to not opening RiF. I just miss a few bigger communities, but otherwise Lemmy has been a fine alternative. Hopefully it continues to grow!

Seems we share a braincell..

I anticipated this and deleted my (3rd party) app icon on the 11th. Just migrated here today. This definitely fills the void for me. I'll only miss a select few subreddits.

Same, RIF will be dead soon once the API changes take effect. Might as well rip the bandaid off now.

I just deleted reddit app and redreader since my sub is participating in the black out. Well be in here full time. I just hope Kenny doesn't become that place where everyone came over then officially moved to reddit app. This place is growing and give it some time and it will be bigger then reddit

I swore to myself I wouldn't go there during the blackout, and that I would use that time to get better acquainted with Lemmy, kbin and squabbles.

But fuck if I'm not dying to go there and see what's happening. If the Revenge of the Admins has already begun or what.

I ditched Reddit a few weeks ago for other reasons (I am going full FOSS/decentralised services). My Reddit account was 11 years old, I don't miss it at all.

I've actually been really happy with my experience on Lemmy so far, all things considered. I don't think I even miss Reddit that much, though I can't speak for others.

I believe in you. We can do it.

I've set the allowed screentime of the boost app to 0 this week that way I don't open reddit accidentally.
