Be honest, do you still use reddit?

Reddit is dead to me. Only time I go there is if a Google search leads me there, which is not that often.

My daily reddit use has dropped by an order of magnitude. Now I just subscribe to a few subreddit RSS feeds that I skim through once a day, and that’s pretty much it. If I really feel compelled to post something, I’ll begrudgingly grab my laptop and head to old.reddit … we’ll see how long that lasts.

Basically my heart is here now and this is where I come for social media , that does not mean I will not use reddit from time to time , but those times are getting less and less, my main reason to use reddit now is to promote lemmy. To give a better idea I spent probably an hour a day on reddit or two or three visits. Now I have not visited for over a week and recent visits have been a few minutes.

Not really, I try to avoid it even when something i’m looking for is there, though sometimes I just cant be bothered to look elsewhere. I hope someone gathers all the useful information from there into archive somewhere, in case something happens to it.

For the moment it is still a massive repository of useful esoteric knowledge. I’ve stopped using it for anything active / current, but so long as it exists and is searchable I don’t see that I’ll be able to move away from accessing it entirely.

Twitter, however, is dead to me.

Scrammed and deleted all comments and got accounts banned [for saying fuck u/spez].

I only lurk a few places that don’t exist here in a meaningful way. Discovery is harder here and desktop socks without RES.

There are just two subs I check about once every two days, but I’m yet to log in again after I disconnected my account last month. I used to only visit it through Libreddit as the UX is better anyway but now that one’s gone too…

Nope deleted my account 2 days ago

MythicWolf, 10 months ago

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

No, I do not. Except when I’m looking for something and reddit is the only place where I can find my answers. But that rarely happens.

Until I find most of the equivalent Reddit subs on Lemmy, with their emigrated leading lights, you kind of have to. Like you said, only Reddit has the answers. Startpage: “42? site:reddit.com”

I’m too old to enjoy drama.

Rakn, 10 months ago

Yes. But instead of spending ever free minute on it I’ll only check it once or maybe twice a day.

Most communities I cared about feel less lively. Except for maybe two or three.

I do, but I’m trying to quit

jeanofthedead, 10 months ago

Yes, but when I go to my multireddits, it’s a barren desert of absolute n00bs asking questions that can be googled in five seconds. Makes me really miss what it used to be. I hope Lemmy gets more engagement.

Sometimes. I’m very active on Reddit before the Reddit API change. I have moved to Lemmy since. Since Reddit is blocked in Indonesia, I usually use it as a secondary platform. I just checked it once in a while when using a VPN or using DNS-on-HTTPS.
