Asklemmy

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

Sadly, no. Just not enough content on Lemmy, yet.

As somebody who just uses the mobile site on Firefox, I didn't really feel affected by the API changes (besides the fact that Reddit once again showed their ugly face). All the subs I care about feel unchanged.

Mostly

A couple communities I enjoyed haven't come over yet but now that I can only check them on my PC I really only hop over there once a week.

I really dig this place over reddit though, it's a lot more chill and way better for my mental health.

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.

Boost stopped working

This works great

No reason to go anywhere

Yeah for the most part I have. There’s still a few things and reasons I’m still using it for. I expect that it will become less and less as time goes on

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

Definitely. For now I just need Relay for Lemmy.

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

The information on niche subreddits always has me crawling back, unfortunately. I usually access it from old.reddit.com, so my usage shouldn't be contributing to their advertising revenue.

Yes, as should everyone.

trying

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.

Preaching to the choir to ask this here, tbh

but, yes.

Be the Community You Want to See On Lenny. Whereever 2 or more are gathered in his name, Lemmy Bruce will be there.

I never really used Reddit. I would scroll through it if I was really bored and occasionally post but never that much. I stopped because of the API just because it was really easy to stop. It could only be good for me to remove that one other thing that tricks my mind into doom scrolling. So will I be using Lenny? It would probably be good for me to not and go do more productive things. But I feel like if I have free time, supporting this is definitely good, I really like the goal and don't want it to die.

Yup, I bailed on Reddit a couple months ago and just discovered lemm.ee. So far, so good.

I am not I've found it - its nice to have a real "FRONT PAGE" again.

No bots reposting for Karma, no ads.

just people on a forum - like how reddit used to be.

Im so happy I found this place

Yeap, I moved a week before on Lemmy. Took couple of days to figure out how it actually works.

During that time opened a bunch of accounts on different instances.

Now I am on a small instance, which is near my location, so speed is good.

I stopped visiting that place since then. Now I only contribute here. I don't want to give them free labor so that they can make money.

I already have. There are some specialized subreddits I still peek at, but otherwise it's Lemmy all the way.

Not totally. Reddit is a shithole but it's my shithole

How do you find your favorite community? Can't anything yet. I'm using connect on Lemmy.world. every search ends up with nothing much.

I like it way more here. It's so much faster and there are no ads.

The reddit app is just bad and slow.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I am 100%. Sadly i don’t think most Reddit users will until lemmy becomes easier to use and gets a functioning IOS app.

Infinity is still working at the moment but today I removed it from my home screen and replaced with a Lemmy app. There isn't a community replacement for every subreddit I follow just yet but hopefully Lemmy and other Fediverse services will continue to grow.

If reddit kills my patched third party app then I'm done using it on mobile, and if they kill old.reddit then I'm done using it on desktop. I'd switch to Lemmy or kbin full time but the content variety is VERY low compared to reddit still, especially for more niche topics like specific games or hobbies.

Yes, for sure. Felt like Reddit where going downhill for a long time. This frog is finally jumping out of the pot.

Yes. I stopped using Reddit during the blackouts and haven’t turned back. Lemmy so far has been a good replacement in all ways. Fuck spez!

I registered to try it out. Looks nice so far. Hopefully more users switch and start filling this place with content.
