My reddit account got soft locked over a year ago making me re-evaluate my relation with social media. I never bothered to reset my password as i could still lurk where i was previously logged in. The app-ocalypse meant i would have needed to get it fixed so i moved to lemmy instead and never looked back.
I quit when Joey for Reddit finally got taken down.
Honestly, the people here seem kinder and more intelligent, even if I don't agree with what they're saying.
I did! I only end up back there if I'm searching for something like a tech problem and reddit is the only place my particular issue was discussed.
There are dozens of us! Literally dozens!
+1 here
Me! Admittedly I still do use Reddit occasionally for particularity niche subreddits but I do enjoy Lemmy a lot more!
I dropped reddit but I do occasionally check for specific technical stuff anonymously sometimes.
Yes
Yep. Deleted my account and all previous comment and post history. Haven't gone back.
not enough
Deleted my two main accounts and I think 3 alts that I could still remember, and haven't been back since. I can't use social media without Sync.
I dropped reddit years ago. I'm currently on lemmy. So I didn't drop reddit for lemmy, but I did used to use reddit and am now a user here.
I've tried many of the alternatives but most of them were ended up pretty bad. Lemmy shows promise but is pretty reddit-y and I think over time it's basically going to become a big circle-jerk just like reddit. It's decent-ish for now though.
We need so someone that can count all the "I did" messages and use that as a crappy metric lol.
Found out about lemmy through r/place, I was with a group allied with the join lemmy group. The group was encouraged to join lemmy.
I'm about 1% as active on Reddit as I used to be. I unsubbed from most of the subreddits I used to follow. I only stick around for a few communities that haven't moved to other platforms, but I make an effort to not comment or post nearly as often as before.
Crazy what happens when you kill the tool that 99% of my use of your platform was done through, huh, Spez?
I switched the day after Boost went dark. The only times I go on Reddit are when I Google something and a reddit link comes up. Lemme definitely isn't a 1:1, but I kinda like it more because the user base seems better quality. I've made more posts/comments in my few months on Lemmy than I did in my few years on Reddit.
Me
I left as soon as the news dropped, didn't wait for it to happen.
Count me in.
