Have you left reddit forever? Have you deleted your account and posts? Just curious

I'm on kbin but yeah, I plan to stay. Most of what I saw on Reddit wasn't even relevant to my interests because their algorithms kept pushing random shit at me. I'm happy to really tailor my own experience here. Goodbye, my 80k karma

Of course I'm staying. I'll also stay on reddit until June 30th, after which I guess I'm only coming back on computer once in a while to check the more niche subs. I'm also thinking of using that time left on reddit to organize with people of those subs who would like to create a Lemmy community together, and to help the less tech-savy join.

Im curious, what made you leave back then?

I wanted to switch anyway as soon as lemmy is half-decently ready and has some users. This ist just a very good opportunity at the moment to ditch reddit for good. Not because I hated reddit all along or something like that but because I love federated, free (as in freedom) alternatives, especially when they're written in rust :)

I plan on making Lemmy my main go to and MAYBE occasionally jump on Reddit for some of the niche subs I'm part of. When I do go on reddit I'll be blanket blocking ads.

This is my very first comment.

I'm eyeing right now, but it already reminds of Old Reddit, so I may stay. I was there to see Digg die, and now Reddit fall.

I just hope for a good active community.

Toxicity-wise I much prefer Lemmy. I'll definitely end up staying and have stopped using Reddit almost completely. However, there are very niche communities that haven't switched over yet so it's not viable for me to completely cut it off. I've logged out of my Reddit account and will most likely never use it again. I haven't deleted my comments or any posts simply because maybe someone else will find use for them (like somebody else said in this thread). Other than that, I'm all for Lemmy.

No app on my phone. Might google something specific or go there for very specific reasons for time to time. Not browsing Reddit anymore.

I deleted all accounts except for one that Iβ€˜m still emotionally attached to. I downloaded a copy of my data and then… well Iβ€˜ll use Lemmy as my main platform for now and see how it goes. Then when my Apollo is dead, hopefully Iβ€˜ll have no reason to look at Reddit much at all.

I'll be staying, delted most posts & changed all comments to a link to join lemmy. Most likely delete the whole thing soon.

[–] madeindjs@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Do you use a script for that or do you do it manually ?

i really want to, I really like the distributed concept, but posting/commenting times out a lot - easily 80% of the time. maybe I'll give it a few weeks and come back to it.

as far as reddit goes? if it cant access it without infinity then I will never access it. deleted all of my accounts except one, and it's only usable until infinity shuts down.

tbh, it still sucks here lol, but i'm open to the plan on staying here as well as reddit if Lemmy can at least improve to be comparable to Reddit.
