Yes. Fuck bullies.

[–] Stylus2650@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Now that Boost no longer works, I have no reason to go to Reddit. Lemmy all the way at this point.

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

100%....Havent even looked back since last Friday around 7 when RIF stopped working...spent a couple hours finding Lemmy and eventually Liftoff, I have a new home now

[–] Gestrid@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Mostly.

All I'm on Reddit for now is to watch it burn and to participate in the one subreddit I truly care about on there. I'm not participating in anything else on there at all.

After installing Liftoff today, I'm done with reddit

[–] RomanceDailies@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

I am definitely replacing Reddit with Lemmy/kbin. I am done with Reddit.

[–] squirrel_bear@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

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.

I have cut off Reddit since June 12th. It's been a nice detox. While not everything is here it's okay with me. I have a 1 year old to chase around that's been primarily keeping my attention anyways.

I went all in on Lemmy and honestly am having a better time than I did on Reddit.

[–] PRUSSIA_x86@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I quit reddit June 12th, popped in on a few subs on the 30th to say goodbye, then immediately hopped on Lemmy. It was a nice detox honestly.

[–] Atiran@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Yep. I was on Reddit for 12+ years, and used Apollo for many years recently. I never used β€œnew” Reddit or the official app. Quit and uninstalled Apollo a few days before the 1st.

Lemmy feels like home. And the fediverse concept is super interesting to me.

[–] xoagray@pawb.social 2 points 1 year ago

I don't even know anyone named Lenny. o.O

Joking aside for the most part I'm already pretty much more on here than there at this point. Only thing I still go there for is the one or two communities that I'm part of there that have no counterpart here. r/typewriters mainly.

[–] Rinnarrae@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (4 children)

I've mostly moved here, though some of my favorite subs dont have an equivalent community here as of now and I'm a bit bummed about losing them.

Yes. This is my new Reddit replacement

[–] Boozilla@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yup. I was checking in with reddit for a while there but have stopped. I like the vibe of this place so far.

[–] UnelectedReimu@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I havent deleted my reddit account, but Im using reddit a lot less now

[–] kazerniel@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

For actual conversations, yeah. I still check one subreddit daily for game leak updates, but that's pretty much it.

[–] febra@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yep. The Reddit app I’ve been using no longer works so that’s where it ends. I actually stopped using Reddit two weeks before the change even took place because I knew I’d need time to readapt and get away from the platform. I’m glad I did that. I haven’t opened it since.

Yes, next question

[–] thatonedude1210@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

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