Not replacing. But trying to be honest. And I'm liking Lemmy with "Connect" app pretty much.
Can't believe Reddit can't pay to any of these Devs to revamp their shitty low performance app.
But anyway. I'm like the idea of the Lemmy instances etc.

I did. I had one sub that I wanted to keep up with so I added them into my RSS reader and spend my time on Lemmy.
Yes. It's different enough that I am not taking it as a one to one replacement, but moving on to a quieter, calmer place.
I thought I might use Tumblr for another angle of replacing part of reddit, but it doesn't seem to be the place for me. I'm not a rabid fan of any one thing, so it seems like so much hype and I don't like the lack of conversation there.
This place has the threaded comments, and respectful conversation.
Yes. I used both for a while but Reddit got quiet and no point in using Reddit without the apps.
Yes. For me, reddit was Apollo, havenβt used it since
Sucks for videos and gifs though. I don't want to click a blind link to see a gif or video
Yup. I was checking in with reddit for a while there but have stopped. I like the vibe of this place so far.
Yes. I stopped using Reddit during the blackouts and havenβt turned back. Lemmy so far has been a good replacement in all ways. Fuck spez!
Iβm fully on Lemmy now except when I need to find historical information - for example episode discussions from a TV show or how to fix computer issues, etc.
So far yep! Why not?
Reddit has no loyalty to me so why should I have to it?
Ultimately I just want some interesting useless funny shit to look at. Doesn't matter where it comes from.
This is my first Lemmy comment ever!
Yeah, deleted RIF early and just pretend it doesn't exist. I'll probably use it if a useful answer pops up on Google, but not for scrolling.
Lemmy and Threads will have to fill the gap for now, but if they grow I don't see a problem at all.
I like it way more here. It's so much faster and there are no ads.
The reddit app is just bad and slow.
Well, this is nice, hello
Yeap, I moved a week before on Lemmy. Took couple of days to figure out how it actually works.
During that time opened a bunch of accounts on different instances.
Now I am on a small instance, which is near my location, so speed is good.
I stopped visiting that place since then. Now I only contribute here. I don't want to give them free labor so that they can make money.
Other than some specific subs, yes
Please dont tell anyone how I live
TBH I could have continued using Reddit as it was in may. Now I'm basically kicked off of a Reddit experience that doesn't treat me like livestock in a cage (the official app). So here I am.
Yes. This is my new Reddit replacement
Yep, left reddit and came to lemmy.
I am definitely replacing Reddit with Lemmy/kbin. I am done with Reddit.
If reddit kills my patched third party app then I'm done using it on mobile, and if they kill old.reddit then I'm done using it on desktop. I'd switch to Lemmy or kbin full time but the content variety is VERY low compared to reddit still, especially for more niche topics like specific games or hobbies.
100%....Havent even looked back since last Friday around 7 when RIF stopped working...spent a couple hours finding Lemmy and eventually Liftoff, I have a new home now
I went all in on Lemmy and honestly am having a better time than I did on Reddit.
I'm using it on my phone, but still browsing Reddit on PC. Going well so far and I assume as I find more communities on Lemmy that I enjoy my use of reddit will slowly decrease.
Trying to
Yes I am
I made it cozy already at Squabbles.io, but I'm giving Lemmy a try. Since Joey still works I do browse Reddit now and then.
with my 3rd party app of choise diem my reddit usage so no more reddit for me
I came here before June 15th and Lemmy seems more alive every day. I only ever used Reddit's official app but I haven't been back since the API changes took place.
Yeah
Yes, next question
How do you find your favorite community? Can't anything yet. I'm using connect on Lemmy.world. every search ends up with nothing much.
