Not totally. Reddit is a shithole but it's my shithole
I'm trying, but there are a lot of people and communities who don't follow. The corporate are just too powerful at the moment. Like Facebook's new Threads is replacing Twitter, instead of Mastodon. Here in Finland Mastodon had it's moment and people were migrating to that, but I dunno.
Yeah, deleted RIF early and just pretend it doesn't exist. I'll probably use it if a useful answer pops up on Google, but not for scrolling.
Lemmy and Threads will have to fill the gap for now, but if they grow I don't see a problem at all.
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.
Yes
I am definitely replacing Reddit with Lemmy/kbin. I am done with Reddit.
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.
Yeah
Been here for a few days. Feels like home
Havenβt quit Reddit yet, but I am only posting or commenting to Lemmy and I exhaust the feed here before browsing Reddit.
Iβm not highly involved in any communities there, else Iβd attempt a mass migration.
I use lemmy occasionally. I do feel the impact of a significantly smaller community though. A lot of the subreddits I would regularly check are not even here. So unfortunately for now, Iβm forced to use the official app. Tried the RSS route too, but it seems it would be too expensive for me.
Iβm sure the lemmy community will continue to grow, so Iβll stick around.
I already have. There are some specialized subreddits I still peek at, but otherwise it's Lemmy all the way.
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.
In early June I decided to give Lemmy the old test drive, and I haven't left. Bye Reddit.
I just use both. Lemmy for general browsing and Reddit when I want a more specific community that isn't around yet.
I was never a 3rd party app user really as I just use old.reddit through the browser on my phone so until old.reddit is killed off I'll probably continue to use both. Once thats gone though I won't be using Reddit, new UI is truly awful
I'm trying. Since boost stopped working. I have been on reddit twice. It's a painful shit experience now and I hate it.
But also. Lemmy isnt quite enough yet. But it's helping me stay off the web more.
FB sucks. Reddit sucks and lemmy isn't itching my need for information.
Oh well. :).
I'm sussing out Lemmy as a replacement. I still go to Reddit but I've pretty much stopped all interactions other than just reading . Reddit has now become a place to fill the blank time in my day between the times I'm busy. Hopefully Lemmy will become a replacement soon than later.
