It is possible to estimate?

I nuked my accounts and haven't logged in since, though I still read Reddit threads because they contain really useful information, I just do it in the old.reddit site.

I think we can be reasonably accurate on how many people are using Lemmy/Kbin, but not on how many people are not using Reddit. Even how many people are actually using Reddit is less accurate as the data is locked away and estimated from other metrics.

If Reddit is going to IPO then accurate usage stats is the last thing it once, like any company it'll go for the most flattering numbers it can generate and push thatball the way.

Here. I quit after so many subs went dark and they started kicking mods out. I‘m a mod on reddit myself and thats the only reason I open the app every couple of days, just to check my queue.

I'm here to stay. I was using Infinity to lurk Reddit, but I stopped using it when it went towards the subscription model.

Infinity for Reddit no longer refreshes content so I guess that's it for me. I'm not using the first party app. I hope one day these sites and services see that this type of shit is like paywalling a news site. It just makes a large percentage of the userbase leave and degrades the ultimate relevance of the site.

I did. Fuck Reddit.

Apollo got shut down so I do not intend to return.

I replaced it with a number of communities, but I still need to use reddit for NFL news. I'm a massive fan and that community is not going to make the jump

Only for the porn.

Right here, yo.

I miss old reddit, and left for here and kbin when the API mess started. Haven't left and haven't really gone back much, either. I find myself a more satisfied with lemmy if that's a thing. Users, content, comments... it all seems like it is more my speed than reddit was.

I've been slowly migrating over. I'm using relay so once that dies or goes paid I'll be here exclusively.

I'm pretty much done with it. I do the occasional search for piracy content with a search engine but other than that I get my fill of internet surfing elsewhere.

I miss some of the content but certainly not Reddit the company.

dropped reddit, yes. For lemmy? Not sure yet.
