Asklemmy

Only for superstonk and wallstreetbets. I find the fediverse including Mastodon enough for me. I was never a Twitter guy, but I created a Mastodon account on Infosec and it's amazing the knowledge and people you can find out there.

Lemmy exclusively on my phone (Memmy app) and reddit occasionally when on my PC.

No. I bounce between here and my main Lemmy instance. I prefer KBin in general, but there are already usable apps for Lemmy.

Drastically reduced my usage and now spend that time on other side projects / reading. I miss the large volume of comment but don't miss being treated like an obstacle (like how reddit leadership sees their users)

No. Have not logged for weeks and can't think of any good reason to go back.

Occasionally. From my desktop. Not really from my phone anymore. I like lemmy well enough but there still isn't as much content especially for niche subjects.

It still comes up on google when you need to figure out an obscure issue and is usually the best answer, although I'm trying to limit it. Other than that, I deleted my account and am long gone.

I made a private LibReddit instance so I can still get the news from specific communities that aren't elsewhere.

only when searching for minecraft modding stuff, although i don't have an account anymore

No.

Yeah, Lemmy doesn't have everyone over from Reddit.

I've clicked a few links about walkthrough questions for niche games, but deleted the app (yes, I used the official app) on the 12th and haven't logged in since. Kbin/Lemmy is great for content and I'm loving the interaction on Mastadon.

I usually check the subreddit redditmobile to see if they actually fixed the app.

Edit: But yea, honestly I probably won‘t go back to Reddit. Lemmy seems to be a great alternative.

I still visit about 3 sub-reddits, all on a browser with ad-block, and I completely avoid commenting, I probably should start using libreddit. Haven't touched the front page since the initial blackout

I take the occasional peek to see if it imploded yet. I do miss certain communities. Only last week I was looking for some info on a historical subject. Google turned up nothing so I wanted to r/askHistorians. I hate they decided to stay on reddit and don't switch to lemmy.

i still scroll a little bit. a few subs with content i cant really get anywhere else. tbh the content on lemmy is very bare so i’ll scroll twitter more…

Someone linked mlmym.org

which mimics oldreddit... I feel at home now.

I go back to check hometown sub once or twice a day. if I go to the front page, I only make it through about half before I realize what I'm doing and switch. Quite honestly, it feels poisonous. Whatever algorithm they have my brain has decided it can live without.

Only if a Google search points me to an answer to a specific problem.

yes. r/SFFPC has not made the jump to the fediverse :(

I blocked it at the router, so nowadays I don't use it unless there's an article I really need to access

Yes, mostly for sharing content here.

Tech support searches sometime bring me back, but I haven't really been back otherwise since the boycott started.

I slowed down when the announcement was made about third party apps. I quit entirely when RIF turned off. Now I participate here, started my own community, contribute to others as much as I can, and finally figured out how to host my own instance. It's been fun seeing it grow slowly.

I have a few RSS feeds of niche subreddits that I can’t find alternatives to, but I deleted my account on 30th June

Only rss of gamedeals and buildapcsales. Those are functionally useful subs. Good deal alerts.

Have no interest in anything else like random discussions in hobbies or games or television or shows or sports which are stuff that are easy to quit. Even /r/Heat family I have left behind despite basically no activity here. Those are more entertainment and don't offer utility. That includes niche subs I enjoyed like gunpla or dedicated tv show or game subs. It just falls into category of entertainment that isn't so useful I need it.

I knew it essentially coming to a close when I didn't have Reddit Enhancement Suite installed anymore.

I was searching for a fix for some MS bullshit and clicked on a link that had a good answer... and lo and behold, Reddit. "Came for the cats, stayed for the empathy." Yes, they still have that on the banner. Lol!!

I deleted my account during the "strike", and this was my first time back. I couldn't upvote the poster, and for a second that made me sad.

No, I have a couple small communities that I have pull into an RSS reader that still works somehow, but I stay logged out and never comment. 12 year account with 29k karma and I quit cold turkey and mostly went back to RSS feeds.

Hmm, not really. As I've said before - a lot of the news stuff is also on Ground News, WaPo, Mastodon or Lemmy. There's no great replacement for /r/sysadmin, but that needed replacing as it got to be useless over the last few years. I don't know if there's a /c/changemyview or not, but that isn't necessary.

Actually, I just spend more time doing other stuff for entertainment - read more books, catch up on more podcasts, yes watch more youtube, TV, Movies whatever. Go outside, walk the dog. I'm kind of surprised how much time I can spend on lemmy lol.

About 85% of my reddit browsing had been on pretty niche subs, so I'm still using reddit to engage in those communities (of those that haven't shut down). I'm trying to contribute to the equivalents here too, but the engagement is still on reddit for now.

The other 15% was just the occasional trip to /r/all to see if there was anything interesting going on there, to which the answer was usually... no. That's pretty much been replaced by here now.

I've only touched Reddit when it comes up when I google something. Haven't used it for anything else for the past month or so.

Only if it turns up in a search result for something. I refuse to install their crappy app on my phone and Lemmy scratches enough of the itch that I haven’t been tempted back

I log in for one niche sub that has no activity in the Lemmy equivalent, and only once every few days.

I used to spend hours everyday there. Now I only visit for a few minutes a week to check up on a game.

But I'll never touch the official app and I'll never come back, even if they backtracked the API decision, because f u/spez

Haven't commented on a single post since I wiped my account. I check the news and world news subreddits and then move on.

only for 1 subreddit, 1001albumsgenerator. i have unfinished business there

boost for reddit has become unusable, many subs i frequent are still blackout. i have no real use for reddit any more, ill use the web client for google results when the sub i need isnt gone

this has done wonders for my social media addiction, more tjme spent with my friends on discord rather than doomscrolling reddit

No

Only if I'm researching something and the top results are Reddit links. Otherwise no.

I don't. Since the beginning of this month, I only visited it 2 times where a Google search pointed out a post there, that is it. And even when it pop ups on the Google search result I tend to first check out other links.

Maybe 2 or 3 times a week. There's some support communities on there that I'm a part of and check in with on there.

But learning about Reddit's behaviour the last month or so has been something of an eye opener and for now I'm enjoying exploring here (and actually reading ebooks again) as an alternative

Nope! Not once since the blackout began.

no. I mostly used Reddit from mobile, and since Apollo went down, I just used it once from my laptop to find a link. Other than that, 100% lemmy using Wefwef.

I do, but not nearly as much. My reddit time when from a couple hours a day, to maybe 15 minutes here and there when I'm at a PC only. Even then, it's not as active. Only my local sub is because the community didn't migrate.

Literally just the HFY subreddit and looking for answers to questions about 3d printing etc.
