I used to check the front page at least once every day, and occassionally check specific subreddits. Now I don’t look at reddit unless theres some drama, like mods getting purged, then I’d go there and enjoy the drama. Occasionally there will be questions that only reddit has the answer to so I have to reluctantly use it. I got my uBlock Origin ready to kill all the ads. That shitty website will not get a cent out of me.
What about you? Do you still use reddit?

Roughly a month on Lemmy now and the habitually visit of Reddit completely faded out. Lemmy replaced Reddit without any compromises for me. I’m also trying to establish a Bass-guitar related Community here, so there’s a bigger investment for me to get things going here.
The Lemmy apps are fine, but I’ve been disappointed in the quality of Lemmy posts and discussion. It’s too many memes, not enough good quality thoughts, discussion, content, community. It’s unfortunate. Wanted this to be the place I die.
Nope
I lost power last night and had nothing to do… lemmy, sadly, doesn’t have as much content yet so I popped in once just to see. Spent like 10 min there with no account since I did delete it and realized it also wasn’t showing me much either.
Having an account with everything you like really helps the experience, glad I looked and felt better when it also didn’t really give me the fix I wanted. Power is back and I don’t forsee myself going back anytime soon, outside very specific google searches where I might find relevant information needed to do my job.
Now and again I jump on for niche information for my hobbies. But only on desktop, and only on old.reddit.com
I don’t browse at all on mobile now.
I only use old.reddit on the desktop occasionally now. My Reddit usage has dropped by 80% now I think.
Reddit is dead to me. Only time I go there is if a Google search leads me there, which is not that often.
I usually check r/ModCoord and try to post some mandatory fuck u/spez.
For casual browsing I use lemmy
I deleted my account around the start of the original blackout, and from then only really checked r/ModCoord & r/Save3rdPartyApps. These days I only really briefly pop into r/ModCoord to check for any updates on the situation.
My reddit usage is 99% on Boost for reddit and 1% on web. Since Boost doesn’t work right anymore. I don’t use it 99% anymore.
Only if a google search takes me there. I have no way or desire to view reddit otherwise.
Nope. If I can’t use Sync I won’t use Reddit.
Like a lot of people are saying, if reddit comes up in a search result, I’m clicking it. You know that’s your best shot at finding the answer you’re looking for.
But opening the app? Scrolling and socializing? I checked my comment history just now, and since joining Lemmy on July 1st, I have commented 5 reddit comments; 1 of them was a reply to someone replying to me. 4 of them were specifically about ActivityPub social networks.
In that same thirteen days, I left 33 comments on Lemmy.
Lemmy is my new reddit! Haven’t touched it since apollo went down
Only when a search engine points me to a very obviously correct and well worded answer to a tech problem. I don’t log in.
