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?

MythicWolf,

I deleted all my posts and comments, most of my accounts and the official app. I’ve been maybe twice in the past few weeks because of search results. Before it was numerous times a day. Most of the subs I followed moved elsewhere and the Reddit stuff I get second hand via BORU’s discord

jjjalljs,

Only when a general search brings me to it. I no longer scroll it or actively choose to visit.

in2thesame,

I completely stopped using it.

Reddit_Is_Trash,

I’m the same way now, I used to use reddit daily.

Now, I only use it when I have question, I still google “my question” reddit.

I’m mad every time i open that shitty app…god it’s bad compared to apollo

Reddit_Is_Trash,

I don’t have any reddit apps on my phone anymore.

If I go to reddit it’s through my browser with U-Block on, and I deleted my accounts so they gain nothing from me visiting.

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.

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.

Never really used it that much and I’ve been much more active in Lemmy than ever in Reddit.

However, if I have problem that need a quick answer, I usually search Reddit. This in not because it is somehow amazing, but because Google searches suck nowadays. Typing Reddit into the search query usually brings out the answer I need instantly.

Nope. Account und its contents deleted and never looked back.

Angelo,

I still use reddit but only when Google search results points me to it and via a teddit (alternative frontend) instance so I don’t give them a dime with ads nor a visit, but teddit is slowly dying (Error: 429 “Too Many Requests”) because they decreased the limit of posts it could load, so you have to switch between instances until it finally loads, but thankfully, a script does that for you automatically (thanks to bezier-curve from Hacker News news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36726442) : pastebin.com/zFJ5nb42

Also, to be automatically redirected from reddit to your favorite teddit instance, you could use this extension for Firefox (I’m not using Chrome sorry) : addons.mozilla.org/…/reddit-to-teddit-redirect/

To help prevent 429 errors from happening, you can still help by creating more teddit servers! : codeberg.org/teddit/teddit

Very rarely. If it’s a terminally online day and I run out of content I might go on reddit.

ChaoticDucc,

I still use Reddit, but have used it significantly less. I am experimenting with alternatives like Lemmy.

LebruhJame,

I just got here

phoukas,

I still do, but only read a few nosleep stories on my mobile browser before bed. If I had another option for spooky stories from indie authors I would quit completely.
