I try to spend most of my time over here, but i head over to Reddit when I want a sub that isn't available on Lemmy.
Since they confirmed that won't change their mind about the API changes, I uninstalled infinity and I only spend time here. So far has been great!
My only traffic to Reddit in over a week was search based. My only engagement was here and Facebook.
I miss Relay something awful. The mobile lemmy site has some strong inconveniences, the mobile app is missing some outright features.
I'd still rather be here than there.
No, I haven't spent any time on Reddit since the closure, except for looking at r/Pics and their John Oliver err, protest. I haven't spent too much time on Lemmy though, that's because I've been busy helping out with an app for it :P
Pretty much haven't gone back to reddit at all. I've been trying to transfer to Lemmy, but getting much of my scrolling fix off instagram nowadays.
Ramping up the Lemmy usage. Once RIF goes down I'll be here for good.
I’m new here, is it stupid that I made an account here and on kbin.social?
Technically you can access anything posted in either instance from either site. But I did the same thing before I understood federation, so don’t worry. You are not alone. Except maybe in a philosophical view.
I see! Guess I need to read up on how federation works
I've been bouncing between them when kbin is having server issues. That's another plus to the fediverse, if one instance is down you just log in to another.
I haven't opened reddit since the blackout began last Monday. I used to browse it for hours a day.
Technically yes, but I spend 0 time on Reddit soooo.
Yeah I stopped using Reddit when the boycott started and don't plan on going back(went back to add nonsense to my old comments). Hoping to see a larger migration as well.
Sadly, the majority will keep on using reddit(I'm talking overall about reddit users). I will use it only if some of my favorite communities don't get created here. I was banned on reddit for whoever knows what reasons(aka sweaty mods) so I can't really communicate there. And if I create a new account it gets banned too - tracking your device - is that even legal? When I reported racism, sexism, etc. they didn't even check it or said it wasn't breaking their rules - I think that sums it all up about reddit, their morals and policy. People are going back to reddit, communities are opening from being private, unfortunatelly nothing really changed. SomeOrdinaryGamers made a pretty good video explaining the reddit 'blackout'. You either cut the head off or it will eat you. Reddit community got eaten this time.
I haven't been on Reddit for a bit now. I think more people will switch when July 1st hits.
Yes. The fact that I routinely view by All, and it's pleasant, is lovely.
I'm definitely spending more time on lemmy than reddit nowadays. Reddit still has too many great resources and info to abandon completely, but with more time to grow, hopefully lemmy will eventually replace reddit for me.
I have been on reddit more but with ublock origin installed and only to post John Oliver and to help with the protest. When the month is over I wont be posting any more to reddit.
For me, there's not enough activity on here yet and still some subreddits that haven't got equivalents here.
I blocked myself from accessing reddit with LeechBlock, so yes, I am spending more time on Lemmy than reddit.
IPOs = death of what made your thing cool.
I deleted my Reddit account after that idiot's comments about "landed gentry". Still trying to wrap my head around the fediverse!
10% on Reddit, 10%-15% on Lemmy, 10000% on Kbin - beats the pants off of other platforms IMHO, which is surprising considering it's early development. The combo of content from both Lemmy and Mastodon instances is pretty darn cool.
10% on Reddit, 10-15% on Lemmy, 10000% on Kbin
>100% error!
How are you manufacturing extra time‽ The greatest physicists of our day want to talk to you!
(Unless you mean to say that you spend 100x time on Kbin what you used to spend on Reddit…that makes more sense…carry on.)
Yeah, I hated reddit tho
I'm not a twitter user I've always liked reddit lemmy is reddit but without the ads
As for me I'm living here now. Just taking a few peeks at reddit to follow the whole api/blackout situation.
I am
