I deleted my reddit apps and decided to not use it anymore, so yeah, I am only on Lemmy now using it on desktop and on phone I use jerboa for lemmy

I gave up Reddit 100% the day the blackout started, so by default… yes. Way more time on Lemmy. As someone that isn’t on these sites that much of the time, I like Lemmy way better since I can actually contribute and have conversations. On Reddit I’m only ever replying to a post once there are a thousand replies already and it’s always buried. Here it’s much easier to chat.

I was thinking about setting up an instance to help me learn some more development stuff and practice my Terraform use, or maybe build an iOS app to learn Swift in my spare time… but I don’t really have spare time, so those things have a 99.9% chance of not happening haha.

i have not been back since the blackout started.

For sure. I hereby consider Reddit to have died, along with the 3rd party app that I used to view it with. (RIP Boost, you will be missed 🚀)

From now on, only Lemmy exists to me and I’ve fully replaced it, partially out of spite.

I’m spending much more time here now that I am spending at reddit. I’m hoping for another big influx of users (and therefore content) on July 1.

I am proud of myself! Haven’t touch reddit since the 11th! I am free! Ahahahahaha! Ahem. For real though It feels good to break the habit. Course I replaced one addiction. With another by landing over here. Oh well. That is how it goes I suppose.

I’m constantly making a conscious effort to avoid going back to reddit. It’s not been easy, as it was my most used app maybe after youtube, but I’ve succeed so far. Last december I deleted my twitter account I created back in 2009. It hurt a bit, but I survived and found a nice place on a Mastodon instance. My reddit account is 11 years old, and I’ll be deleting it too, soon. It’ll hurt too, I know, but I’ll survive too. Lemmy is my new home.

I’ve basically made the switch 100%, and I’m finding myself a lot more active on here so far. Everything I’ve posted in any given community has resulted in a lot more friendly discussion here than it tended to on Reddit… honestly, so far this feels a lot better lol.

99% time on Lemmy, 1% on Reddit telling people to migrate to Lemmy.

Last week I switched from 100% reddit / 0% Lemmy to 0% reddit / 100% Lemmy overnight.

Fuck /u/spez

I’ve abandoned Reddit ever since a couple days before the blackout and it’s been really nice. It feels refreshing to be part of what seems to be an upcoming community.

I have, 7 days clean off Reddit.

I’m enjoying doomscrolling through the drama on Reddit but I’m enjoying the community over here more. I know the inevitable it’s coming (RIF user) but now it’s a much less bitter pill to swallow.

Oh definitely. I’ve been on a continuous Lemmy/kbin binge since Friday. This place is way more enjoyable than reddit because:

• Your voice matters. People actually upvote and reply!
• There is no karma! One less thing to obsess over (though you can see how many posts/comments a user has made).
• The content is much more interesting and reminiscent of the early days of Reddit.
• Maybe I’m too nerdy but I like how clean the site is.
• There is absolutely zero commercial interest across the entire lemmyverse and it’s awesome. You can talk to actual people and have fun!
• It feels magical that there are all these different Lemmy and kbin servers and you can see people from 10 instances talking to each other in the same thread.
