Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

15 years for me. I'm not the type to go scorched earth, so I'll still pop in briefly from time to time from a Google search or to look for something specific, but I don't use Reddit for near-constant idle browsing anymore, like I used to. Now I have Lemmy for that, although it would probably be healthier to just cut out social media altogether (or severely reduce it).
I'm trying to remember. I know I had an app for it way back when I had an iPod touch, probably when I had the 3rd gen one.
Can't remember what year it was, but alien blue was still its own thing before it got bought out. I wanna say 12ish years? Can't remember for sure, but pretty sure I'm over 10.
Digg poweruser, joined reddit in the digg exodus, spent many years pissing off redditors through various projects, ShitRedditSays, HailCorporate, GamingCirclejerk, the fun ones come and go in waves of interest as the zeitgeist moves along.
Been on lemmy for 3 years already now.
Yup, when Joey stopped working I tried the Reddit app for a few days, but it was just awful.
So here I am.
I had just had my eleventh cake day
I used Reddit since 2012 until spez destroyed third party clients
I joined in early 2012. In 2015 I became a mod on an active created by a friend for our EDM scene in a fairly major city. I had a Google calendar linked to FB event pages and added events multiple times a week and also helped mod a sub for a record label out of said city with now some widely known national artists. I’ve since moved states and stopped using Reddit after the blackout/API stuff. I miss it.
I was on there for 10 years. Fuck Steve Huffman.
12 years and I am not missing it.
I deleted my account of over 10 years and only go back anonymously for Ukraine and World News. I haven't found a replacement for those on Lemmy.

8 Years myself
Yep was there 12-13 years and haven't been back since sync stopped working.

About 13 years of daily use for me, I haven't been back since the blackout started.
12 years for me, bye bye! I really don't miss it much.
12 years here. It's out my social media rotation.
12-13ish years. Deleted at start of June protests because I didn't expect reddit to budge at all
14 years and they're welcome to it
17 years. Probably the only site other than Google I've visited almost every day since then. It's extremely depressing to lose Reddit after all that time. But I'm enjoying Lemmy, and hoping we can grow it Digg-exodus-style.
11 years. Left and didn't look back.
15 year Reddit user. Had my account banned for suggesting that a pedophile should have been taken out behind a building and shot. Up until that point, I hadn't even had so much as a suspension. It started with being banned from subs I never visited or commented in. I remember I had gotten into an argument with a mod and was accused of racism. To prove my racism, they used the "N word count bot", which came up with zero uses of the word in the entire 15 years I was on Reddit, which I think hurt the other person's feelings. His account had multiple uses. I really didn't think much of it and left Reddit alone for a couple of days due to being busy with work. When I went to log back in, I saw that I had been suspended for 30 days, and a week after that, I was permanently banned. Personally, think a lot of it had to do with my being subscribed and was active in some subs that were in direct contrast to Reddit's majority political ideology. I was told there are ways around a Reddit ban but I don't care enough to put in that much work to make another account.
Been on Reddit since 2011 while my main account is only 9 years old. Regardless, Lemmy is now my go-to except for smaller subreddits that haven't fully migrated yet. That said, I've noticed more and more activity in those lemmy communities so I have high hopes the trend continues!
Yup. Surprisingly painless, pleasant even.
13 years. Don't even notice it, loving kbin.social. hoping it gets app support soon!
12 years. Used a cleaner trying to remove everything. Noticed that still shows up in searches and I can still find them. Disappointing.
So where do I sell the reddit account? Make something good come of it.
13 years. Adios.
12 years!
Joined in January, 2013 so just over 10 years. Ialmost exclusively lurked though.
11 years. Gun was already aimed as his foot, but the Spez went and pulled the trigger. Happy to be off reddit now.
13
14 years. Reddit has been shit for a while tho.
12 years. Wiped my account and deleted it. Even the porn alt
I was a bit over 12 if I remember right.
I don't miss it at all.
11 years here. Made the jump shortly after the protests died down and Huffman made it clear that he didn't care who the changes impacted.
Can't be bothered the check but close to 10 years, fuck that site!
15 years here
Not sure how long I was there, but well over ten years. Deleted my account and am done.
My 10 year anniversary was July 12.
I've been on Reddit for 10+, but I haven't actually left yet, this isn't quite a full replacement for me.
10 years, haven't used it at all since Sync stopped working. I'm enjoying Lemmy, not very many niche communities but I'm sure that will catch up
