Add me
I visit Lemmy with sync on my phone and tablet. On pc I still visit reddit. I actually haven't visited anything of Lemmy on pc yet.
The content of Lemmy does feel lacking compared to what reddit used to offer me. And so does the content on reddit actually (feel lacking compared to what reddit used to offer me when I visited it with sync for reddit).
The home tab when logged into the reddit app is just weird, so many subs that I have no interest in seeing are being shown, while subs that I'm actually a member off are shoved down the list. The worst offender for me, was that reddit had decided for me that I should be interested in my countries' fascist sub, just because I'm a member of the pluralist main sub. When I was using the reddit app for a few weeks, I would see racist dog whistle posts daily. So now I don't login into reddit anymore, I just browse it anonymous now.
I did but I only get on here to kill time at work.
I mostly moved. There's one sub I still frequent because of the community there. And often I find answers to tech questions there, and take part in those discussions.
I mostly dropped reddit for the fun bullshit I used to enjoy. But Lemmy hasn't replaced that fun. Lemmy is kinda self righteous and squeamish, obsessed with defederating and bitching about tankies. I need to find a new home.
Haven't used reddit since boost went down but I am planning on going back in a couple of weeks/months.
take a look at lemmy usernase stats
I did.
My wife dropped Reddit but never adopted Lemmy, despite my attempts lol.
For years I have rallied against the dark forces working to consume Reddit's glorious mission statment but the minor inconvenience of a subpar app was just too much!
While I'm still in the process of closing down my Reddit account due to having a lot of useful saved posts. A big thing that has helped my switch is the my favorite Reddit client infinity got forked( or repurposed by the dev. I'm not sure which) into a Lemmy version called eternity, so the move in terms of app familiarity has been almost seamless. I do find quality posts and content in general is on a much smaller scale on here, but that has actually been a good thing for me as I now spend a lot less time on social media.
I still use reddit to vent frustrations about life in general. Anything serious/productive goes on Lemmy.
When Sync came out I moved to Lemmy. Using that familiar and customizable software made the switch super easy. Nowadays I primarly browse Lemmy but tend to check Reddit for official movie discussions and gaming issues/help, rarely use the web client to that though. RedReader for mobile.
I go back every now and then to search the Cybertruck community for new posts, but that's about it.
Anyone who isn't stupid
I deleted my Reddit account some months ago. But if I knew how much toxic is Lemmy becoming into, I wouldn't come here either. Because right now I can't tell the difference between Reddit and Lemmy, to be honest.
I did. At first week lemmy was kind of cool. All nerd and cool people. Then normies started to flood with their shitty political posts. So now it's like reddit just in smaller capacity.
Well I did, but the community in Lemmy is suffocatingly left leaning for me. So I had to go back to Reddit for fresh air. (Never have I thought I'd go back to Reddit because some other community is even more left, but here we are.)
