Most of the people on here probably did, or traded/split time between the two.
I did for Lemmy + Tildes + a bit of Hackernews.
Yep, and haven't missed it at all.

I use both Reddit and Lemmy now. I used to use RiF on mobile but now Reddit for me is pc only. Liftoff for Lemmy has taken over that spot on my phone now. The main reason I haven't been able to completely switch is just the lack of some of my favourite sub Reddits switching over to Lemmy. The Lemmy communities exist but they're lacking numbers.
me, although my hand was slightly forced with a permaban at the same time. I don't regret it at all, although I do miss some of the niche communities that aren't really taking off here (yet)
I did too
I left Reddit for good. Aside from the garbage spez pulled, I can’t use the site without Apollo.

I don't know how you could track uninstalls outside of informal polls. I'd consider myself as having fully dropped Reddit for Lemmy, but on occasion I'll follow a link on Lemmy to the Reddit site.
Monthly active users gives a rough estimate but doesn't account for people registering on multiple servers and alt accounts (and of course we can't forget the occasional toxic spammer). But subtracting that from Reddit traffic barely puts a dent in it.
I think Reddit will stay a similar size or continue to grow a bit, but overall quality of it has been circling the drain for a while now. I don't think the IPO is going to help at all with that, only make it worse.
I did, completely. I don't spend as much time on Lemmy as I used to on Reddit, but I net more enjoyment out of the experience.
I use both for different types of contents. Reddit has so many small niche communities that are currently still irreplaceable for me.
At least 3
The only thing I go on Reddit for now at the moment is to browse their comic sub once every now and then.
But that's not completely dropping Reddit. Because Lemmy/Kbin is still in its early stages there'll be a lot of people who spend most of their time here but occasionally go to Reddit for that one sub or for some particular thing that's not quite made it here yet.

Yep and I haven't missed it.
There are some communities that never transitioned to Lemmy, so I'll be using them untill old.reddit is disabled.

I go back to Reddit (Adblock enabled) only to see new posts from my favorite lewd cosplayers because I'm too cheap for OnlyFans.
I did
Count me in. Removed my account after I had heard that admins are removing mods from the closed/nsfw subreddits. The content on Lemmy is not that diverse yet, I miss regional or nieche technical communities sometimes. But I hope things will get better eventually.
Fuck Reddit!!!

I did
Used a script to delete all my comments. Nuked two ten year old accounts.
Commenting for sake of a headcount lol
I'm no expert but best guess would be to get an estimate of all the new Lemmy users - there seem to be a few floating around - then run a poll in a few instances and estimate based on those results.
While I doubt it is possible to estimate how many left Reddit since the spez crap went down, the total growth of others like Lemmy, Mastadon and even Threads is probably the most indicative of that estimate.
I too left Reddit when RiF died, but we're still a drop in the bucket compared to the numbers that still frequent the platform.
I did. Only connect to Reddit if I want to find something from saved items.
