I only visit reddit if I google something and a reddit thread about the problem pops up in the results. Otherwise, I'm completely off reddit.

Nope. Account und its contents deleted and never looked back.
Nah. This is my shitpost home now.
Nope, in fact after trying the super delete Suite (failed) I'm creating my own userscript to delete all my old comments. Once it's finished later today I'll post about it on Lemmy for others to use.
15yr old account dead and banned. The only time I check out Reddit is to look at the Western Europeans taking the piss out of each other on 2westerneuropean4u.
Negative - occasionally I'll find something on Google but I search for other options before resorting to Reddit haha.
I did until they killed joey today. Now I have no reason to go back.
Removed reddit bookmarks and apps and went all in on Lemmy, haven't touched Reddit.
Never really used it that much and I've been much more active in Lemmy than ever in Reddit.
However, if I have problem that need a quick answer, I usually search Reddit. This in not because it is somehow amazing, but because Google searches suck nowadays. Typing Reddit into the search query usually brings out the answer I need instantly.
Very rarely. If it's a terminally online day and I run out of content I might go on reddit.
I still use Reddit, but have used it significantly less. I am experimenting with alternatives like Lemmy.
Mainly using Lemmy. Was recently trying to migrate all of the Subreddits to Lemmy. Still have ReVanced Sync for Reddit installed, and Relay. Reddit has many more communities that I'm afraid Lemmy won't get to see, perhaps because the audience just uses the default Reddit app, but I'm hopeful. Even for Subreddits that moved to Lemmy, I feel like I get to see more content that I'm interested in, in the same period of time, even if I change the sorting. I usually see different content if I reopen any Reddit app, but Lemmy often shows me mostly the same posts for a day or so.
Only for one community and only occasionally (like once every 3 days or so, I check the news, learn new stuff and move on). Oh, and today I was there to request all my data.
I just got here
Now and again I jump on for niche information for my hobbies. But only on desktop, and only on old.reddit.com
I still do, but only read a few nosleep stories on my mobile browser before bed. If I had another option for spooky stories from indie authors I would quit completely.
Nah deleted my acct like a month ago
I'm mostly just using it for subreddits that don't have an equivalent Lemmy community yet.
My daily reddit use has dropped by an order of magnitude. Now I just subscribe to a few subreddit RSS feeds that I skim through once a day, and that's pretty much it. If I really feel compelled to post something, I'll begrudgingly grab my laptop and head to old.reddit ... we'll see how long that lasts.
Nope! While lemmy is still missing a lot of things, such as large amounts of text posts and comments, and smaller communities, I've found other ways to fill the gaps. I browsed nosleep a lot and have found some nice series', but that won't make me go back. Also Tumblr exists to fill the smaller community gaps
I honestly still do, though not on my phone.
And more often than not if Iβm on my PC Iβm working/gaming.
So really, I still go to reddit on my PC, but most of my usage used to be on the phone, now here I am on lemmy, on my phone, taking a shit.
In essence Lemmy has replaced Reddit for me where it really matters.
Not since the blackout, no.
Only for the naughty stuff. I've unsubbed from everything on my main account and haven't logged in for ages, but not gone as far as deleting my messages (can't be arsed, tbh). Lemmy's Naughty Stuff For Wankers isn't quite where Reddit's is yet but it's getting up there.
Not since Boost stopped working
I completely stopped using it.
I don't. I thought I would miss it a lot, but after replacing rif with lemmy and a few other apps I haven't really been thinking about reddit recently.
The moment sync died, my engagement with it died.
It's sad, it was great.
But... It is the way he wants it... Well.. He gets it. I don't like it anymore then you do.
You know the song ;) https://youtu.be/5e3sI5xkA0M
I'm the same way now, I used to use reddit daily.
Now, I only use it when I have question, I still google "my question" reddit.
No I dont't actually.
I purged every post I had made over the years before walking away. Haven't looked back. Fuck'em.
Only when a general search brings me to it. I no longer scroll it or actively choose to visit.
I still use reddit but only when Google search results points me to it and via a teddit (alternative frontend) instance so I don't give them a dime with ads nor a visit, but teddit is slowly dying (Error: 429 "Too Many Requests") because they decreased the limit of posts it could load, so you have to switch between instances until it finally loads, but thankfully, a script does that for you automatically (thanks to bezier-curve from Hacker News https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36726442) : https://pastebin.com/zFJ5nb42
Also, to be automatically redirected from reddit to your favorite teddit instance, you could use this extension for Firefox (I'm not using Chrome sorry) : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/reddit-to-teddit-redirect/
To help prevent 429 errors from happening, you can still help by creating more teddit servers! : https://codeberg.org/teddit/teddit
I deleted my 9 year old account once Bacon Reader stopped working for me.
Nope deleted my account 2 days ago
Same here. I'm not actively browsing or looking for information from Reddit, but if it's unavoidable, then so be it. I can't ignore the wealth of information still there.
Haven't been there since the blackout, don't miss it. I've always gone there with desktop browser running uBO so I never did see adds there except for inline stuff once in a while. That's one nice thing about Lemmy, looks exactly the same whether the blocker is on or off.
Nope, nothing proprietary on my watch.
No. I went cold turkey in mid-June. I logged back in last week to use Power Delete Suite to automatically edit every post and comment I ever made to this and then deleted my account.
I'll still use Reddit read-only and with cookies blocked if I stumble upon (ahahaha) it through a search or something.
