I did after almost 12yrs. Haven't looked back

[–] RBWells@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I guess you could look at how many users Lemmy added during the drama, most likely near 100% of those were Reddit refugee. I did switch when it became clear reddit overall was getting too shitty, too big & corporate.

[–] blackstampede@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

I did. Barring search results.

[–] negativeyoda@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

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

[–] _Sc00ter@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

I'm here. I miss some of the smaller communities I used to be apart of. I go back if someone sends me a link, unless it's NSFW. I don't have the app, so I just tell people I can't see that link anymore. shrug

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 switched and in the end that's all that matters, you're welcome everyone

Lost my main account when theybgot rid of third party apps, that account was banned from news subreddits for calling g chuds fascists and dumbasses so now every new account gets suspended for "ban evaison" so now it's basically just a lib take aggregator I can't interact with

I still use both, I'll pop on Lemmy at the start and end of a day to see what is going on, but still use Reddit just because it has so much more content. Plus it's the "home" of several manga communities I can't find anywhere else except Discord, and I'm not a fan of Discord anymore due to the Skype-esque bloat. I did however delete all my comments and relegate my account to purely lurking status, nor do I upvote or downvote anything on Reddit as well.

There are dozens of us! Literally dozens!

[–] sleeperdouge@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

I did not dropped reddit completely, occasionally going in there through google searches but ever since the api fiasco I've never visited the site directly. I still haven't deleted my account but didn't used it since then and is planning to delete it. Lemmy does not have a lot of content and the niche communities compared to reddit. That is not a bad thing though and instead it had stopped me from mindless scrolling I picked up from using reddit.

left when Boost turned off, sticking with Lemmy.

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.

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.

[–] HipHoboHarold@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I use it for one of the niche communities I usually went to. But other than that, I stopped voting other subs. So much rage bait and bigotry. It's only gotten worse since people started leaving. I just instantly go to the sub I want, check out some posts, which sometimes only take about a minute, and then leave.

[–] Arahgon@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I quitted Reddit and still don't reget my decision.

I am still lurking at reddit from time to time. But my account got permanently suspended because mods over there are wankers. So... sort of.

I did. Add 1 to your count.

[–] jacktherippah@lemdro.id 3 points 2 years ago

Count me in.

[–] Mpolmanteer@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Yep and I haven't missed it.

[–] violetsareblue@beehaw.org 3 points 2 years ago

I use both but my Reddit usage is down. There are communities there that don’t have a replacement here yet

[–] DannyMac@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I did! I only end up back there if I'm searching for something like a tech problem and reddit is the only place my particular issue was discussed.
