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?

Redredme,

The moment sync died, my engagement with it died.

It’s sad, it was great.

But… It is the way he wants it… Well… He gets it. I don’t like it anymore then you do.

MartinXYZ,

I’ve visited a couple of times. My preferred app (relay) is still working, but I’m guessing I’ll jump ship completely once relay is affected, Lemmy has mostly replaced my Reddit habits anyway.

StoicLime,

I do. My usage has gone down in half, as blue I have Lemmy and the vibes here are nice and I like the concept but it still doesn’t come close to Reddit in terms of content and niche subreddits.

I do, but only to support FOSS users in some communities that are not here [yet]. There is no opnsense community here in Lemmy, so when I see questions there in reddit, I help where I can.

However, my “bio” or whatever it is called in reddit, clearly states that I have moved to Lemmy permanently.

I am actually considering creating a opnsense community here and hoping that Franco will come and join, and take over ownership.

I am lurking and watching the dumpster fire at this point , reddit went full Authoritarian on Dndmemes and sacked a bunch of cool mods because we turned it into a goblin porn subreddit for the shutdown/blackout and the admins did not like that… so I am posting here now and watching Reddit burn in the distance.

Alex,

I only visit reddit if I google something and a reddit thread about the problem pops up in the results. Otherwise, I’m completely off reddit.

Zeroxxx,

Redreader is still working.

Maybe once a week using RiF ReVanced for

  • Checking two small subreddit
  • Delete comments that haven’t been visible anymore but now are again (because I deleted newer comments, now the older ones starting to appear again)
Zippity,

I still look at a few specific subreddits when they pop-up in a search result.

Sometimes when I need an answer I use wayback machine to read reddit. Don’t want to give reddit my engagement and have their cookies in my browser.

akippnn,

I want to stop using Reddit, but every Google search I make that’s tech-related has an answer on either StackOverflow or Reddit. Even if most people move to Lemmy, Reddit would probably come up once in a while when I’m looking for answers to a problem only a few people would care about.

Madusch,

Until yesterday, Joey for Reddit still worked, but since today it doesn’t anymore. I miss r/BestOfRedditorUpdates, so I’ll probably use it just for that sub.

wholemilk,

I don’t. I thought I would miss it a lot, but after replacing rif with lemmy and a few other apps I haven’t really been thinking about reddit recently.

undeffeined,

I don’t scroll through reddit anymore but will use it if a friend shares a link or when looking for something. It was hard the first few days as I found myself opening Sync only to be greeted by the goodbye message. Safe to say I was quite addicted to doom scrolling but happy to have stopped.

Been using Jerboa for 2 weeks now and have not doom scrolled yet, feels good

Savirius,

About 85% of my reddit browsing had been on pretty niche subs, so I’m still using reddit to engage in those communities (of those that haven’t shut down). I’m trying to contribute to the equivalents here too, but the engagement is still on reddit for now.

The other 15% was just the occasional trip to /r/all to see if there was anything interesting going on there, to which the answer was usually… no. That’s pretty much been replaced by here now.
