Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I used to check the front page at least once every day, and occassionally check specific subreddits. Now I don’t look at reddit unless theres some drama, like mods getting purged, then I’d go there and enjoy the drama. Occasionally there will be questions that only reddit has the answer to so I have to reluctantly use it. I got my uBlock Origin ready to kill all the ads. That shitty website will not get a cent out of me.

What about you? Do you still use reddit?

syphe,

I still visit about 3 sub-reddits, all on a browser with ad-block, and I completely avoid commenting, I probably should start using libreddit. Haven't touched the front page since the initial blackout

coldv,

I am surprised how little I miss Reddit after June. I realised I was really dependent on RIF. I downloaded an RSS app instead (Inoreader) and followed some subs that I used to frequent. I check it once every few days as opposed to many times a day before the collapse.

No. They killed bacon reader so I no longer post.

If Reddit is in the search results I’ll click, but that’s it.

minorsecond,

I log in for one niche sub that has no activity in the Lemmy equivalent, and only once every few days.

Maheswara,

Actually I left reddit long before migration… Came to know about Lemmy only after the API controversy…

I nuked all the content of my Reddit account, then forced it to be banned from Reddit. After that, blacklisted the domain from my computer so that it just returns a (ERR_NX_DOMAIN) and migrated to KBin instead
Been happy since

I quit Reddit as soon as it came out how much they wanted to charge Christian for running Apollo. Joined up on /kbin and have been incredibly happy with it.

Me personally no, I quit on June 11th and I haven’t looked back. My husband on the other hand looks at it periodically. He showed my something from r/PartyParrot yesterday thinking it was cool and I had to tell him it was a popular repost. Pretty much cemented the fact that I’m not missing anything.

ninjan,

I basically only use my phone these days and when third party apps died so did Reddit to me.

hbar,

I slowed down when the announcement was made about third party apps. I quit entirely when RIF turned off. Now I participate here, started my own community, contribute to others as much as I can, and finally figured out how to host my own instance. It’s been fun seeing it grow slowly.

pturn1,

Nope. Gone all-in on Lemmy. Also used it as an opportunity to cull communities that I’d subscribed to ages ago and never got round to removing. Started from scratch and building my subscriptions again - quite therapeutic actually!

I only do when something spicy happens like all mods get demodded and see if they post a sticky to a new community like dndmemes did

Mostly using libreddit, when I need to refer to a specific thread. Otherwise, most of my browsing is in Lemmy.

Also, feel free to have a look at the search function on the sidebar, this question has been asked quite a lot lately, such as lemmy.ml/post/1846338
