Staying. Spez has my explicit invitation to suckle my boomer taint.

I'm still on the fence. I've been having a lot of issues with lemmy after creating an account

I'm staying. I haven't liked reddit for a while now.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, specially if the migration keeps up.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Yes as long as Lemmy is free from outside control.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Most definitely. Now that I'm getting navigation down, Reddit will be a foregone conclusion in a couple of months IMHO.

i'll stay on lemmy once more of the popular content extends beyond "lemmy vs reddit". I'm liking lemmy a lot and with better mobile apps, it'll encourage me to stay.

Just a yes. No comment

For now, I will. I'll still be on Reddit (despite what the owners are like, there's still a ton of good content, information, and help on there). But I'll use this, too. I just hope it becomes more active. The best subreddits always have a decent amount of new stuff each day. I'm seeing Lemmy pop up on various "here's where to go to replace Reddit" articles, so that's hopeful.

What I really like is the feeling that this is a new way to experience the internet. There will inevitably be instance mods who are awful, or drama between instances. People are always going to people. But, this really does seem like something different from the "Sign up for one particular website run by a corporation" model. Also, I really hope Lemmy instances can stay ad-free. Maybe the community can think up a way to have a donation function instead of ads.

Yea, definitely

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

idk if I can get used to the interface, I still find it a bit confusing rn, but if the site receives improvements, yes!

Too late, my antenna dropped and my ears grew. I'm a lemmie now.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

As opposed to what? I'm not going back to Reddit unless they reverse all their changes and fire spez, which ain't happening.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I have gone back to reddit in the past 24-48 hrs a few times to check up on things, something feels off. I know I know there's things going down, but it also just seems different. The pictures of jon oliver, etc. Ive been getting lemmy posts through my mastadon for the last few days since this started, and decided to finally make a full account here because I wasn't really getting the UI and i am super happy to see activity! gonna stick around <3

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I intend to BUT ultimately the decision is on the mayority's preference

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I just joined and made my own community! So hopefully I’ll stay for a long time!

I do plan on staying here mostly. Aaron would be ashamed of how far reddit has fallen. Some subs I cannot live without like /r/CFB which means I will use reddit from time to time unfortunately

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I don't need another social media site that is trying to sell my data, feed me endless ads, AND has a dictator at the helm.

I'm not deleting my Reddit account, and I won't stop using Reddit entirely, but I'm done using Reddit multiple times a week and will mostly browse occasionally or through search results from Google.

I was deeply sad when all this began and Sync for Reddit was being shutdown, but Lemmy legit feels just like Reddit only better!

Plus, with Sync for Lemmy in development I couldn't be happier!!! Just needs to grow with more users and activity for those more niche communities to develop. But I'm all in for the decentralized future!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I like it here and I don't like it anywhere else.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Yes.

How are you counting the votes? Manually?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

Not sure but I will be staying on a federated reddit-like site. I'm more leaning towards this over kbin though.

Will I ever go back to Reddit? Even if hell freezes, no.

Idk, the app keeps crashing!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Absolutely Yes! this whole reddit drama was just what I needed to wake up and get out of my comfort zone and that shitty centralized site, which lost it's edge a long time ago but I was sleeping.
