Unfortunately yes. Unfortunately Lemmy is too small for many of the things I did on Reddit. I mainly enjoyed lurking around in discussions on Reddit, only posting comments when I really cared (just like I do now here on Lemmy). Whenever I played a game, watched a show, etc I’d go to Reddit to read about other people’s opinions and discussions. But Lemmy is too small to have any meaningful discussion about a specific game or some other content.

Often I see here the “if you miss it why not create it” sentiment, but that’s just not how I used Reddit. I often don’t want to have a meaningful discussion with s small group of people but rather read the opinions and memes of a large group of people.

So far, I’ve been able to limit it to browser usage though. The web experience of Reddit is abysmal, but at least I can block the ads etc. And I’m still here for all the content that is on Lemmy.

Yup. Stuck to my guns for over a year, and Lemmy didnt grow like I thought it would. Started using Reddit more regularly again in September.

Now, I do still only use it in the browser, no app, so my usage of Lemmy still far surpasses Reddit.

But there are some communities that either never made the migration or faced active hostility, so, gotta go to Reddit to be a part of them 🤷‍♀️.

nop

On a browser, yes, but only for one sub because the community there is 1M+ and over here is 10 and no one has posted in 9 months.

Without an account and on a web browser? Yes.

Do I regret it? Also yes. That site barely works half the time anymore. It’s kinda funny how my only real choices of browsing Reddit are either super bloated or super ugly (the latter refers to old.reddit.com). Want neither? As of 2023 you can’t.

Yes, because niche communities are much smaller here if not non-existant. Communities about Classical Chinese, poetry, various academic humanities subjects and the like isn’t exactly thriving on here. I try to use the fediverse when I’m able to though, and also try to support smaller communities, but yeah…

Deleted my account the day third-party apps were killed. I do browse it on the phone daily using Libreddit though, but only specific communities. I also have LibRedirect setup on my computer, so it redirects me to an Libreddit instance when I click on Reddit links from search results. There’s still a lot of valuable knowledge there so it is hard to avoid.

I was banned, so I cannot.

I lurk in my city’s subreddit. It briefly closed as part of the protests, but the Lemmy community that was created at the time is inactive.

The porn is still better over there so…

Using reddit on PC and lemmy on mobile since the reddit app sucks

No

Only time there is because Google links to an answer there. Other than that, nope.

When searching for info, yes. But just daily use and scrolling no

I use old for some of the technical subreddits like cisco, Fortinet, and sysadmin.
