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?

Cethin,

I had a web result that the result I was looking for was on Reddit. I guess that’s technically using it, but I wasn’t logged in and didn’t touch anything. It still counts as a visitor though, and I’m disappointed in that.

ronflex,

When subs started blacking out and the only posts I were seeing on my feed were from r/hamsters, I cut the chord without looking back. My friends have all tried to find workarounds to be able to use reddit without official means like using apps that get the pass for accessibility and I’m just thinking “imagine going out of your way just to access reddit” 😂

The only subreddits I cared about were very few at that point with how shitty reddit had gotten as a whole, so it wasn’t hard.

Yes with modified Apollo and Boost. But, nowadays, many of my Reddit subs seems get a lot of double post, scam ads. if this problem overwhelms my home feed. I will ditch Reddit

factotumus,

No app, no user.

Ilovethebomb,

This has a very “still obsessed with my ex” vibe, just saying.

islandofcaucasus,

It’s a site that a lot of us have used every day for years and it got yanked out from beneath us. Of course people are going to talk about it for a while

No

Senornomilkshake,

Only on desktop here and there since RES still works. Enjoying Lemmy when on mobile though.

only if it has an answer to a problem I need an answer to, but I then turn around and leave the second I’m done.

Not since Boost stopped working

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.

CaptPretentious,

I purged every post I had made over the years before walking away. Haven’t looked back. Fuck’em.

Deelala0516,

Nope, not at all.

kakes,

Yeah, I left on June 15th when the protests started and jumped into Lemmy. Spent 11 years addicted to Reddit, but once I found Lemmy it was honestly pretty easy to ditch it.

Scarecrow59,

Occasionally I use reddit to find answers to questions about topics that aren’t really available on lemmy

I have not used it since some time in early June.

I have technically logged into my account – but only because I’ve opened Relay Pro. In spite of everything, it appears to still update everything, and the last app patch update message I saw said that they had implemented changes to reduce API usage (this after July 1).

But I haven’t interacted with reddit beyond that, and I don’t plan to. It’s not about anger at reddit anymore either – I actively like Lemmy better. It reminds me of old reddit.

squarewagon,

I have always lurked Reddit, I have never made an account. With Lemmy, I contribute instead of lurk as I feel I have a part to play in it’s early growth for it to succeed. But that being said, I occasionally check the front page and a few specific subreddits but not quite as frequently since I joined Lemmy.

Oh, and when I do, I use LibReddit to view reddit, so nothing even official.
