Asklemmy

Currently going back and forth because there are still some subreddits that don't have an active community.

Hopefully, soon most if not all niche I follow will have a dedicated community here.

Also, still waiting for a better mobile client (excited for boost for lemmy and relay for lemmy).

I've basically left reddit for good. There's some thing I miss there but in general Lemmy fills that void enough that I don't have the urge to go back anymore. If I end up scrolling less because of smaller amount of content then good.

I've already deleted all of my posts and edited the comments to "FUCK YOU u/spez". I didn't delete the account because the little cunt has a reputation for editing user's comments, I'm just gonna mass edit them from time to time to be sure.

I even changed out the email with an alias one literally saying "fuckyouspez@..." and that fucker hasn't banned me yet.

not yet. because Lemmy is still quite small tbh. But, the thing is Since Reddit new API policy starts, my Reddit home feed filled with spam,bots and double posts from many subs. So, if this problem overwhelms my home feed. I might move to Lemmy permanently.

from my phone, i only have access to lemmy. in browser i access both, 50/50. there are 10 or so subs that i frequent on reddit, the rest i'm here. it's hard to let that account go because i put energy into building it and it's 10+ years old. i've been using it to track my journey in life. was planning on aggregating the data.

Yeah. I'm just waiting for the subs that I was active at to grow here (mostly space-related subs).

Pretty much

I'm an old lady and I'm trying, it's a little hard to navigate though, so I would say I spend less time here than I did Reddit, but I am 10 days fully clean from Reddit after a month of weaning. I've also started getting up and moving around more throughout my work day and listening to audiobooks and podcasts.

Yep. I didn't bother installing the normal Reddit app but still needed something to read when all I've got is my phone. Lemmy looks promising.

I scrambled, shredded, and then deleted my Reddit account after getting my data request back. I'm done with that place because I can only see it going downhill from here - site will only get more enshittified over time, this was the tipping point.

There are only two subreddits I'm checking right now. One will be defunct when reddit shuts down that app. The other is a gaming subreddit where I'm not going to get the kind of discourse here that is there (yet). I can use their forums but...I like simplicity these days and having everything in one place is just easier.

Both yes and no. Yes the time I used to spend browsing reddit is now spent using lemmy. But the experience is totally different in lemmy. I am a much more active part of the community here whereas I was a lurker at reddit

jesssir, deleted all my reddit accs

I didn't remove my Reddit account yet, but I stopped using it as soon as I tried Lemmy. As I expected, it's not perfect, it still needs some love on the technical side, but people and content are already here. I'm pretty happy with my feed so far. I can only see it grow and getting better, but I guess we'll find out how the fight with spam bots will be.

The community reddit had was really good. I hope it is replicated here. I wonder is there is a way to transfer some of the reddit data here?

So far, so good , yes I like it just waiting for sync and boost for lemmy

It's a good 95% because I uninstalled the app. Lemmy has a lot of potential, and that's worth it.

Yup. After seeing Lemmy start to populate with more users and content, I deleted my Reddit account and only use search engines to search for information on Reddit now.

Now that I’ve got an app on my phone, 100%. Reddit is just an ad platform these days. It’s sad.

I wasn't expecting to, but the official reddit app was worse than I expected, you can't sort by 'hot' anymore so it is literally not as interesting to look at. I haven't used it since the switch over and I don't miss it.

I'm more of a Carl guy, but Lenny will do.

Seriously, I can see this becoming a full replacement if users continue to migrate. Once Sync for Lemmy is out I will definitely be using that for my bored moments. For now, patched Reddit Sync is still working, so I'm still using it while I can.

That said, Reddit feels dead to me. Browsing now is absolutely not the same as before. As far as I'm concerned they committed suicide.

Yes. 100%. Tinkering with my own lenny instance for me and my friends atm. Once "Sync for Lenny" drops ill bring them all aboard so its a smooth experience for the non-tech users. Also this is my first test post form my lenny instance! All hail LENNY!!

I mostly have by now, had to look for community analogues of the subreddits most important to me and create communties that I missed on lemmy. On Reddit I was mostly lurking around but here I actually have the motivation to post and manage communities, since I this is an open and decentralized platform.

Right now using both.

Mostly. I prefer Lemmy. I actually like it enough to run my own instance.

Yep. The Reddit app I’ve been using no longer works so that’s where it ends. I actually stopped using Reddit two weeks before the change even took place because I knew I’d need time to readapt and get away from the platform. I’m glad I did that. I haven’t opened it since.

No, for the time. I like the idea but i see a lot of issues that hopefully get fixed in the future. For example the existence of 5 communities with the same name. Where do I join? it makes things more inconvenient. Finding communities is hard without 3rd party websites. If I search on my instance for a community that is on a different one I would like it to be shown as a search result and not having to get the URL and paste it in. Time will hopefully fix all these problems and Ill invest some time of my own to add features to this platform.

I've abandoned reddit.. just hoping that them nsfw subreddits come over too..

Yes, deleted my Reddit account

no doubt. fuck reddit

Sure am. Been using Lemmy exclusively (shoutout to Memmy) for the past 3 weeks

I only come to Reddit to check the status of my data takeout request and use teddit to check out /r/modcoord and /r/redditalternatives though they're winding down. Migration complete, after 3 years.

Yepp, waiting for the new Sync app but really liking it here so far.

I'm in the process... Since they destroyed RiF, I've been going to the old Reddit website but it's just not the same anymore. I've been resisting downloading the Reddit app due to what they've done to the community but it's not easy.

Lemmy is nice and all but I find it confusing as it shows several communities (some with 0 MAU and some with plenty) whenever I search for it. I'm excited for the future of this one and the Mastodon one but they're just not as polished as their more established counterparts.

I am slowly, over the long term. I am still glancing and reading some of the reddit subs that haven't made the move, but I figure over time they'll eventually migrate away. One day I probably won't even look anymore and will have forgotten about Reddit completely.
