I don’t. Fuck Reddit and fuck spez

Unfortunately yes. Unfortunately Lemmy is too small for many of the things I did on Reddit. I mainly enjoyed lurking around in discussions on Reddit, only posting comments when I really cared (just like I do now here on Lemmy). Whenever I played a game, watched a show, etc I’d go to Reddit to read about other people’s opinions and discussions. But Lemmy is too small to have any meaningful discussion about a specific game or some other content.

Often I see here the “if you miss it why not create it” sentiment, but that’s just not how I used Reddit. I often don’t want to have a meaningful discussion with s small group of people but rather read the opinions and memes of a large group of people.

So far, I’ve been able to limit it to browser usage though. The web experience of Reddit is abysmal, but at least I can block the ads etc. And I’m still here for all the content that is on Lemmy.

Don’t use my Reddit account anymore, and now I obsessively check and contribute to discussion on Lemmy instead of Reddit.

As a search result, sure I’d click on a Reddit link once in a while, but other than that I’ve stopped interacting with Reddit altogether.

Only time there is because Google links to an answer there. Other than that, nope.

Yes, because niche communities are much smaller here if not non-existant. Communities about Classical Chinese, poetry, various academic humanities subjects and the like isn’t exactly thriving on here. I try to use the fediverse when I’m able to though, and also try to support smaller communities, but yeah…

I deleted my account, but still use it for information on occasion. I use a front end for it when I do.

Nope. Not unless I need to Google something and the best result is a reddit thread

I don’t log in or post there any more, but there are still a few occasional subreddits that don’t have analogs here that I’ll sporadically browse anonymously.

I still use it if searching for information on a search engine; like, doing a site search on Reddit for answers on certain things.

I don’t expect to be going back unless something blows up here. For most purposes, the Threadiverse has passed the traffic threshold I need to be engaged.

Only to answer obscure questions I have. But I’m not there to participate

Without an account and on a web browser? Yes.

Do I regret it? Also yes. That site barely works half the time anymore. It’s kinda funny how my only real choices of browsing Reddit are either super bloated or super ugly (the latter refers to old.reddit.com). Want neither? As of 2023 you can’t.

I want Lemmy to be a viable alternative and do use it. But, the lack of niche communities makes it harder. I do go back to Reddit from time to time for that fix and to keep up with a few things.

On a browser, yes, but only for one sub because the community there is 1M+ and over here is 10 and no one has posted in 9 months.

nop

I use old for some of the technical subreddits like cisco, Fortinet, and sysadmin.

No. There’s just repost bots left. There’s no point in going back, I’ve already seen all the posts several times over the years.
