  • I deleted all my comments and posts but kept my account in case reddit undeletes anything. Also to keep my saved stuff and messages. I don't feel like it matters if I keep my account or not since I'm not using the site anymore

  • I didn't migrate in protest, I just came here because this community picked up pace, an my access to Reddit got limited when RIF stopped working.

    I still have a Twitter account that I never use. And an Instagram account. And a few more that didn't work out.

    • I think a lot of people who don't really care about the protests and surrounding issues will do exactly what you have, because Lemmy has fast become a genuine alternative and is likely to continue to grow and mature until it is the first stop, in the way Reddit used to be and Digg before it.

  • I deleted my account after a week when I found out Sync for reddit was done for. I am now waiting for Sync for Lemmy. I only use reddit when it gives me a result in Google search. So far I am loving Lemmy and Mastadon. I thought about looking at Pixelfed. Even if my friends/family don't use it.

  • Didn't delete, but used a script to edit all of my comments with a link to kbin. Might as well use my account for good and help out with kbin's SEO

  • I technically have Reddit fully working with Apollo with my API key but I seldom visit it other than modding my uni sub once in a blue moon.

  • I sometimes check if my deleted comments are back, and I delete them again. I'll probably delete my account once I'm sure my comments are gone for good.

  • Mostly for the odd Windows 11 troubleshooting because the Windows support world is the most bloated shit ever. So many solutions that solve fuck all.

  • I keep meaning to go over there and re-save all the links and recipes and stuff that I have saved up from years and years, but I haven't gotten around to it. I did delete the app from my phone though, so I'm not tempted to scroll it all day (I just scroll Lemmy all day now instead).

  • This topic has opened my eyes to how many of you still have your foot in the door with Reddit. I’m shocked, honestly.

  • I will visit the site because there is too much good information to ignore. Using Libreddit and hoping that Reddit doesn't kill that service.

  • I still check a local subreddit occasionally. Lemmy, unfortunately, doesn't have the userbase to support localized communities and going to the local subreddit is still better than going to local Facebook groups.

    I'll also occasionally check the LEGO subreddit to see new builds. There's a LEGO Lemmy community, but it doesn't have as many people in it as the subreddit.

    I haven't actually posted since the API Crisis hit, though. I just had to go in with the official app since Boost was finally cut off and it was even worse than I remembered. I'll still stop by Reddit every so often, but it'll be a "once or twice a week" visitation instead of "multiple times every day."

  • I'm happy on Lemmy and not using Reddit for any of my actual browsing or posting.

    I like to look once a day at what a mess r/all or the homepage (not logged in) has become, and report content that is not labelled correctly as nsfw or other problematic content that might cause issues... I mean, won't someone think of the advertisers with their adverts sitting next to that stuff!

    As more communities remove NSFW status, it just seems like the problem gets worse - almost like they are struggling to moderate content. How could this happen!

    (More seriously, there is more actually objectionable stuff popping up on r/all because it is pulling from different subs now. I've seen more hate, racism etc. That genuinely should be reported if you go back and see it not only because there shouldn't be a place for it, but also the approach Reddit has taken has had obvious detrimental effect to the content and the more reports the better.

    I feel like Reddit must be in a bit of trouble as they are letting quality and control plummet and this is the first thing people see on the homepage when not logged in or on r/all.)

    I have also repointed the sub I look after to encourage people to come here by linking itin the welcome message, side bar, and a pinned post.

  • I haven't logged into my account at all. RiF still gives me access to the feed, logged out, no ads or crappy ui. It's basically a glorified search engine. I have only used it to research some equipment ftmp. No interaction.

    Lemmy is where I like to have discussion and interact with people and I spend my time here. If I do happen to see something, I try to be mindful to perhaps share it and get discourse going on here, with you guys.

  • I have deleted my Reddit account, but I am still using RedReader plus LibReddit to access the few Subs that do not have Federated alternatives for now. But my usage of Reddit is pretty low. Just waiting for some Kbin app like Artemis so that I can fully start using Kbin}

    • There is some kind of webapp for Android. Not on the Google play store, I was prompted to download while browsing kbin on mobile. It works well enough for now, pretty much the same as browsing on a mobile browser except it's only kbin

  • To keep in contact with someone I owe for helping me out, and for trying to trade away my old Humblebundle keys. Other than that, I've shifted my doomscrolling addiction to Kbin.
