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

I did. Only connect to Reddit if I want to find something from saved items.

left when Boost turned off, sticking with Lemmy.

I haven't posted or commented on Reddit since over a month, but I haven't deleted my account yet. I have consulted Reddit a few times since, notably when it showed up in the results for a question I was looking up, or to see the posts from the r/Askhistorians weekly roundup (of which I follow the RSS feed). While the way I've been using Reddit lately doesn't require an account, I'm unsure of whether I intend to delete mine; partly because if for whatever reason, I needed to post a question somewherebit will get a big audience, that's the biggest I can currently get, and partly because I don't want all my great posts and comments of the past to be lost to history...

Lost my main account when theybgot rid of third party apps, that account was banned from news subreddits for calling g chuds fascists and dumbasses so now every new account gets suspended for "ban evaison" so now it's basically just a lib take aggregator I can't interact with

It's a bit harder to estimate because it's global and no matter where you are goong to ask, you will ask a specific bubble but with enough time, money and people you can do that. In my case I would ask to make a University project out of it.

Recently discovered revanced could patch boost and I'm back on Reddit.

After a few months on just Lemmy, I found too much of the content was about Linux, foss, and how much the internet sucks now.

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, and I like it over here better. Sometimes I look at a reddit post if it turns up in search, but otherwise I like the culture here better.

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.

[–] Trent@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I stopped participating, and mostly using it. I've been back a couple times when a search for information led me there, but otherwise I haven't used it.

[–] LoamImprovement@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

I mostly stopped using it when RIF announced they'd drop support. Deleted my account and everything, although I do still pop into subs that haven't migrated over.

[–] Illecors@lemmy.cafe 2 points 1 year ago

Other than occasional query leading to it at work - i haven't been there at all.

It was very easy for me, though. This is the same environment as the one Inhad found on Google+ when that launched - full of technical geeks. I like that so I stayed.

I deleted my Reddit account (24k karma, I think, about 10 years old?) and went with Lemmy. It's fine, though I miss a couple gaming subs.

[–] AWittyUsername@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I sort of did. I still have an account, but I only use it in the browser and very rarely, from like hourly use to maybe once a week when I can remember.
