Keep on with not using reddit.
They can pound sand for all I care.
For me personally, I won’t delete my account right away but I will nonetheless try to come more and more to lemmy because the problem on Reddit isn’t just a u/spez one but rather a systematical problem. It can reappear again. They showed their true colors.
Not going back. I don't like their attitude toward their contributers/users.
They burned that bridge.. No going back.
I'm done with reddit. It has become too big and has accumulated too much dead weight.
The AI will finish the job as I predict that Reddit will transform into an astroturfing hub. ( /m/astroturfing is open btw)
I’m in the process of abandoning my Reddit account. I abandoned my Twitter a little while before the Muskening and once it became finalized I really didn’t want to go back, but I kind of regret not saving more memes/screenshots so I’m making sure to actually archive things this time.
I don’t want to go back. The fediverse has everything and more; I would like to think that we can keep up this wonderful sense of community here. Meanwhile the toxicity on Reddit has gotten even worse.
It’s like having the opportunity to have an amicable separation from a toxic ex.
leave the old content intact, there is a archival ongoing from archiveteam on reddit. (shreddit channel on hackint irc, or https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Reddit ). That data goes straight into the wayback machine (raw data is available, too for those that can crunch through it)
Will they? I lost any trust I have with spez and the admins.
I'll stay here for sure, just need to find the courage to delete my account for good. Ten cent investment never agreed with me anyway.
Reddit has been so transparently awful in handling this whole situation that I wouldn't go back. I can only imagine something similar would happen again not too far in the future anyway, regardless if they were to reverse their decision with the API.
I want to avoid enshitification, and enshitification is more or less the ultimate goal of those who own reddit. This isn't the first time they've tried to extract value from the site with utter disregard for users and moderators. If they didn't get their way this time, they'll just try again later. Perhaps more politely or more slowly, but the writing is on the wall. Has been for a while.
I wouldn't care. I am only still using Reddit because of the Ukraine megathread in r/worldnews. As soon as we get something like this going, I leave it completely.
Im using reddit to look at boobs, fediverse for everything else.
When the reddit boobs dry up, ill look elsewhere.
I figure it cant hurt if its purely NSFW. They dont make ad revenue from it, I get to see boobs.
There's no going back, I can't wait to see Reddit filled with loads of low quality content
Whether I go back to reddit is entirely dependent on how Lemmy/kbin do. If they remain active I see no reason to switch back, but if they don’t then I won’t have much choice as I don’t know of any other alternatives
I didn't leave reddit because of the API changes. I left reddit because they're treating their userbase and their volunteer moderators that keep the community clean to their standards for them like absolute shit
I won’t return to Reddit. In my case the bridge is burned.
I deleted all my comments/posts and will only keep my account in case you need one sometime in the future to read stuff. Otherwise it will be used to block my old username.
Except for reading specific stuff when I’m googling for solutions I’m not going to use Reddit anymore. Since the blackout the number of posts increased so heavily that I don’t experience much difference to Reddit. Except one thing: The people here are much less toxic!
This reminds me a bit of Wizards Of the Coast. As a MTG and D&D player, I experienced multiple times the company treating the player base like shit, getting flak, crawling back, and repeating this over and over. At some point I figured I'm an idiot for accepting their remorse - they are constantly trying to see what they can get away with, and the only sensible response is an irrevocable ban.
From my perspective, Spez's response to the community is unforgivable - there is no amount of crawling back that will appease me - I have no intent in continuing to invest my time and effort in a platform that I believe will continue to try to get away with what they can, just like WOTC.
I'm gone for good. I've been looking for good alternatives for a long while. I really don't agree with what reddit has done, but I'm glad they did it. Because it created the desire for so many to seek change. Reddit has been a cesspool for a long while.
In a world where Steve Huffman has called reddit's data "his data to sell", it has become abundantly clear that he has absolutely no respect for the fact that it is his users and moderators that create the community -- all that he and the admins do is create a system whereby the community can create and curate content. Without users, he has a big expensive and empty server.
It's not "his data", it's the community's data. The fact that he's acting like he owns all of it pretty much sums up why I overwrote and deleted all of my content on reddit, and it is precisely why I will never provide free content for that website ever again.
The damage is done. The administration at Reddit has shown they will do whatever it takes to stamp out dissent... except for actually listen to the users.
Then I'll use it when it pops up on duckduckgo when I'm looking for troubleshooting or stuff. Fediverse is now my procrastination hub.
Imagine we're at the point where the Titanic has split in two, and the remaining portion is held afloat by trapped air. You can patch the hole made by the iceberg, but it probably won't change my plans too much.
Staying right where I am.
Continue to use kbin.
There are two communities that I'll stay on Reddit for, but my interest even in them is dying (and was dying even before this spez idiocy).
As for the other 80% of my participation on forums, I have liked what I'm seeing on the Reddit alternatives and I am likely going to get my cup filled there. So, for me, this whole shitshow has been a win and not a loss.
I'm just done with reddit.
I've already deleted (nuked) my reddit account. I wouldn't go back, I was so sick of the tiktok videos and endless reposts.

Reddit can eat my cheeks. Every time I open the app now there’s some sponsored post or dumb thing that makes me hate if.
