We have far better discussions on Lemmy, but there are some really niche communities I follow on Reddit still because there aren't enough interested folks here on Lemmy.

General usage, Lemmy

Technical usage, Reddit.

Reddit for sure. But I absolutely refuse to use their app so I use it in the web browser but not a lot because reddit sucks on mobile. So I mostly use Lemmy on my phone.

On desktop I use both.

[-] Nemo@midwest.social 5 points 5 months ago

lemmy, but I still check reddit after I'm done here

[-] pixel@pawb.social 5 points 5 months ago

Lemmy is better, but the communities I care the most about and want to give the most to aren't on lemmy, so I don't really have the luxury of using it quite as much as I'd like. I do like it here, though

[-] Varven@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

Reddit definitely has more users and more communities that don't exist here but I prefer lemmy because no ads and no corporation trying to sell my data

[-] anas@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

Still stuck between both, but when I’m on reddit I’m using a sideloaded version of Apollo with my own API key while logged out, so theoretically they can’t actually collect any data.

Reddit is obviously more active, even though a huge chunk of that activity is bots, but I like it here better. My only complaint is that my home page is weird sometimes and doesn’t show posts newer than a day or two.

[-] Acrimonious@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

Lemmy, reddit is more active and has more content but Lemmy will get there. The front page is awful now. It's full of ads and suggested crap. I subscribed to things for a reason. I liked seeing posts I cared about. This shoving content down my throat approach curiously made me get off the site sooner.

Lemmy by fucking MILES.

  • no ads
  • no enshittificafion
  • federated ecosystem
  • OSS
  • self-hostable
  • no aggregate karma (so karma farming/selling is completely meaningless)
  • userbase genuinely feels a lot less dumb
  • loads of other things that I’m forgetting/too lazy to fully enumerate right now
[-] Vaggumon@lemm.ee 4 points 5 months ago

I deleted 2 Reddit account with over 10M combined karma during the shit show last year. Have never gone back. Lemmy is a million times better, even if I'm missing some of my local communities.

[-] mozz@mbin.grits.dev 4 points 5 months ago

Is this a trick question

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 5 months ago

Only lemmy. I visit reddit maybe once a week now

[-] Mr_Wobble@lemm.ee 4 points 5 months ago

I still end up using reddit in searches when I'm looking for an answer, but I've learned a few things I'd never have even thought about in the short time I've been on Lemmy.

[-] MxRemy@lemmy.one 3 points 5 months ago

Lemmy for sure, I love this place so much!

[-] Sparkles@fedia.io 3 points 5 months ago

I like Lemmy more. I visit 4 subs on Reddit, not daily. I think it doesn’t have to be an either/or necessarily. I refuse to use their app. Rip baconreader.

[-] Sam_Bass@lemmy.ml 3 points 5 months ago

Doesnt matter reddit kicked me out, so...

[-] ristoril_zip@lemmy.zip 3 points 5 months ago

Lemmy for good content and discussion. Reddit still has niche fan communities that will probably never migrate over here, but I can always hope.

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Lemmy, overall. There are things I miss from Reddit but whenever I browse it now it's just so full of advertising.

[-] Panda@lemmy.today 3 points 5 months ago

I prefer Lemmy, but unfortunately it is missing a lot of the communities I liked on Reddit, and there doesn't seem to be as much content. When I'm looking for information on a specific topic I'll still check out Reddit but I haven't logged in since the Reddit drama and don't plan to. I do hope Lemmy gets bigger, though.

[-] loki@lemmy.ml 3 points 5 months ago

Mostly on Lemmy with Voyager, and sometimes check Reddit with Libreddit (until it lasts).

Best of both worlds.

[-] FriedRice@lemmy.ml 3 points 5 months ago

Reddit was realy god in my local areal, so thats what immissinhg. Lemmy,isnt just there yet. Not many from my area. So yir i like Lemmy for the lack of adds, and for notsellinhg my data

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

~~Are you serious? We're on Lemmy.~~

Definitely Reddit.

[-] NahMarcas@lemmy.ml 2 points 5 months ago

Lemmy, teddit and libreddit

[-] LarkinDePark@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 5 months ago

Lemmy in every technical way but to get information about non-political stuff, hobbies, diy etc. Reddit's numbers just means it's king, for now. The continued enshittification of the place will ensure it falls in time.
