Are you committed to make Lemmy thrive? Do you keep posting your discussions on Reddit?
I’m not using reddit ever since they broke all the 3rd party clients.
I mean you can still use them, it’s just more finicky
Haven’t been to Reddit since the API changes last summer. I’m trying my best to be a good Lemmite but I don’t post enough OC, so that’s my bad
I feel guilty, that is why I asked. Yesterday, I even posted a question on Reddit instead of here. I feel that I should believe more on the Lemmites
I thought we were lemmings 😥
Find stuff and post it here. Our memes comrade.
Left reddit as soon as the blackout happened, was actually impressed at myself being able to stay off it. Haven’t been back except when I google a question, and the answer is on an old reddit thread (I do not reply or comment).
My opinion is Lemmy needs more communities and more DAUs. Have been trying to tell people why they should switch but I’m not techy, my friends are not techy and they just don’t care about data/ownership etc. I’m hoping reddit shits the bed further so more laypeople jump ship.
Same goes for mastodon which needs more content although I only previously used twitter on days with big events (oscars, grammys, f1 race days etc).
i hate that we are here stuck trying to convince laypeople when we used to be the ones to shape the internet. now its just coporations making us ruin it 9-5 every day, for laymen to just use the shittiest option because its the one with the biggest marketing budget.
I deleted my Reddit account during the blackouts and haven’t gone back.
I’m Lemmy 99%. Can’t do 100% because sometimes there isn’t an equivalent community on Lemmy so I have no choice but to use Reddit.
You could make one and then post it to both communities.
If it’s a topic I’m super passionate about & there’s no community on Lemmy then sure. But I’m not going to start a new Lemmy community every time I want to post a random dog photo or whatever.
Deleted my old account(s) a few weeks back, when i use reddit now its usually from the browser just to see the answer to something, no more accounts for me.
This place feels like a breath of fresh air. It genuinely helped me cut down on social media usage.
I don’t use Reddit whatsoever. Being away from that site for 18 months has really shown how low quality the content there is. I know longer have any desire to ever interact with that site if I can help it, even if the fediverse is missing some of the active niche communities on reddit
Lemmy will thrive anytime Reddit experiences another exodus and the servers don’t crash.
Never post on Reddit never browser it and ask my questions on here. Sometimes I look at a Reddit post for an answer to an obscure question but if it’s something I ask I use Lemmy.
If i’m looking for something online and the only info is on some niche subreddit, then I go to reddit. Other than that, I pretty much just lurk here in the shadows, muttering to myself about vengeance and being the night
If there’s a community here for something and it’s active, I post here. If not, I post elsewhere.
Depends if the community came over here with me or not.
I gave at the office.
Im very glad seeing more and more comments on any thread on lemmy. I kept using it and interacting with it for a whole year since the exodus, vowing to still use it even if it got slightly deserted because I believe in this project that isn’t mine. Im so happy you guys did as well. (Im just a user) I hope it will grow and that we will overcome the human tendency to pollute whatever space they’re in to finally call this home.
I still use other media though, i swear it was only one time baby!
