I like lenmy more

Left on the API troubles went back once or twice for warframe and other small comunities but been liking here much better. I engage with people in here. It doesn’t feel like screaming into the void.

I go on reddit every now and again, but the Lemmy experience is better.

Left reddit during the API drama out of principle. I only read reddit now via 3rd party apps, I don’t contribute. I spend most of my time on Lemmy. My goal is for enough niche communities to grow here that I can give up reddit entirely.

Just like Lemmy more.

I do miss the ability to find conversations about any niche topic I want.

But the conversations on Lemmy are more genuine/authentic and the platform is run on principal/morals. An enshittified platform based on greed and inundated with bots could never compete.

Put another way, Reddit feels like I’m talking to the ‘‘internet’’, Lemmy feels like I’m talking to people.

Left during the APIcalypse, largely only go back to help guide people to the fire exits.

I started winding down when Alexis Ohanian fired the AMA subreddit’s organizer; lied to her face; and blamed Ellen Pao (CEO at the time).
I started going there only when desperate after the API scandal.
The only thing that I miss is the ability to see just the subreddits I specify in the url (i.e. r/news+technology+worldnews+etc+etc)

I still have 2 Reddit accounts in good standing. I used Reddit entirely via the Reddit Is Fun app. I tried the official Reddit app but the ads flooded out content and performance was trash.

I chose to leave a year ago as the 3rd party apps (I was using RiF (Reddit is Fun)) were being killed. Realized it was the beginning of the end and I left.

Tried a couple of Lemmy apps since then (and I have been mostly lurking) and landed on Connect for Lemmy and I’m very happy to have left the corporate hell-hole of social media

Neither, I still use reddit because the subreddits pertaining to my interests are still active. Lemmy is almost entirely political discussion and boomer Facebook comic strips from what I’ve seen, and most other boards pertaining to specific interests have low activity here. If that wasn’t the case I would be using Lemmy much more.

I only read two sub reddits via Firefox. (mostly for sports highlights / news)

I never post or interact anymore, I’m giving them zero content or engagement and always with all ad blockers / pi hole on max blast.

I was on reddit over 10 years, but once sync went I was done.

I like Lemmy more.

I’m making the transition. I use both, for now.

I just refuse to use the official mobile app. When they killed Apollo, I left. I’ll use old Reddit sometimes when on my desktop but all my mobile browsing is on Lemmy with Voyager

Left reddit when Sync stopped working. Been here ever since and I actually prefer it here anyway.

Reddit was and probably still is an echo chamber of bots and catch phrases. There were a few useful gems of information when you googled something, but now most of that content has become unreliable due to some people (like me) who salted and later deleted their comments before leaving.

Also Spez was a dick 🤷‍♂️
