I still go to reddit as a resource when looking up stuff online, but I no longer browse reddit. The only subreddit I consistently go to is the small one I moderate, as it’s large enough I can’t simply convince each individual personally to move to the fediverse, but small enough that trying to convert would result in negligible numbers here.
well yeah for the most part but it has been tough as some of my communities have are non existent here or little activity so i still go through old reddit and look at some subreddits.
I’m an old lady and I’m trying, it’s a little hard to navigate though, so I would say I spend less time here than I did Reddit, but I am 10 days fully clean from Reddit after a month of weaning. I’ve also started getting up and moving around more throughout my work day and listening to audiobooks and podcasts.
As much as I want to move on to the fediverse, there are occasions where Reddit is better, such as finding specific questions that were answered; it’s like the stack overflow for general life. Now I just browse the cached version if I need to search for something like that.
I just use both. Lemmy for general browsing and Reddit when I want a more specific community that isn’t around yet.
I was never a 3rd party app user really as I just use old.reddit through the browser on my phone so until old.reddit is killed off I’ll probably continue to use both. Once thats gone though I won’t be using Reddit, new UI is truly awful
Both yes and no. Yes the time I used to spend browsing reddit is now spent using lemmy. But the experience is totally different in lemmy. I am a much more active part of the community here whereas I was a lurker at reddit
