Yes, and I've noticed something very odd. There seems to be some sort of false engagement and fake upvotes going on for average users.

Normally I post a smart-ass comment, and either get ignored, or down-voted a couple times...

Ever since the API restrictions, it's like no matter what I post, it gets a few upvotes very quickly. Some of these have mini explosions and gain a bit of traction.

I'm also seeing A LOT more activity on some of my other niche subs.

It just seems so fake and contrary to my prior 11 years of experience, makes no sense unless it is being bot driven.

I only visit reddit if I google something and a reddit thread about the problem pops up in the results. Otherwise, I'm completely off reddit.

I do not. I thought I would... I even told people such even as I supported the good fight. But, no... I haven't been back.

I guess I'm actually pissed off enough to not give incompetent, shithole billionaires and millionaires that extra win.

Only when a link brings me there or though a ddg search. No more browsing.

Not once.

I still use it for Google searches. For the subreddits that aren't private anymore, it's still a good resource to get reviews from actual human beings. But I made use of Power Delete Suite to both edit and delete all my comments, and I deleted my accounts back in June.

I've stopped using reddit, unless I need to search for historic content related to some tech gadget or something. And then only on desktop/laptop.

I've subbed to audible and kindle unlimited and been happier since.

Only for one community and only occasionally (like once every 3 days or so, I check the news, learn new stuff and move on). Oh, and today I was there to request all my data.

Nope. Account und its contents deleted and never looked back.

Very rarely. If it's a terminally online day and I run out of content I might go on reddit.

I still use Reddit, but have used it significantly less. I am experimenting with alternatives like Lemmy.

I just got here

I did until they killed joey today. Now I have no reason to go back.

Mainly using Lemmy. Was recently trying to migrate all of the Subreddits to Lemmy. Still have ReVanced Sync for Reddit installed, and Relay. Reddit has many more communities that I'm afraid Lemmy won't get to see, perhaps because the audience just uses the default Reddit app, but I'm hopeful. Even for Subreddits that moved to Lemmy, I feel like I get to see more content that I'm interested in, in the same period of time, even if I change the sorting. I usually see different content if I reopen any Reddit app, but Lemmy often shows me mostly the same posts for a day or so.

All the time. Still getting my feet wet with lemmy

I only check my profile occasionally to see if I need to run the super deleter on it again.

Removed reddit bookmarks and apps and went all in on Lemmy, haven't touched Reddit.

Kept using 3rd party apps until they shut down. I personally wouldn't be caught dead on the offical reddit app just on principal. I tried using the desktop site a couple times until I found Lemmy!

The major exception to this is if I look up a question or something and theres an answer on Reddit, I'll still click that link.

I'm not using reddit as a daily driver, but I visit it when I'm looking for answers.

Now and again I jump on for niche information for my hobbies. But only on desktop, and only on old.reddit.com

Not since Boost stopped working

Only for the naughty stuff. I've unsubbed from everything on my main account and haven't logged in for ages, but not gone as far as deleting my messages (can't be arsed, tbh). Lemmy's Naughty Stuff For Wankers isn't quite where Reddit's is yet but it's getting up there.

I still do, but only read a few nosleep stories on my mobile browser before bed. If I had another option for spooky stories from indie authors I would quit completely.

I told myself I would leave gradually but in reality I'm never over there anymore. Its just so annoying and slow to not be able to use RIF.

Meanwhile the fediverse is so new and interesting and way more friendly.

Nope, I actually deleted my Reddit account. I already had low support for Reddit because of the response they gave after the last time there was a Reddit blackout. I had been using Lemmy on and off on my old account on the main instance, so when the recent blackout happened, I gave Reddit one last chance but the way they handled the situation was the last straw for me. I came back to my account on Lemmy and used it until the main Lemmy instance started having server problems due to the influx of users.

I'm mostly just using it for subreddits that don't have an equivalent Lemmy community yet.

Never really used it that much and I've been much more active in Lemmy than ever in Reddit.

However, if I have problem that need a quick answer, I usually search Reddit. This in not because it is somehow amazing, but because Google searches suck nowadays. Typing Reddit into the search query usually brings out the answer I need instantly.

Nah deleted my acct like a month ago

what is this “reddit” thou speak of?

I purged every post I had made over the years before walking away. Haven't looked back. Fuck'em.

A bit. Not much, but a bit.

Lemmy is still missing some things I enjoyed from Reddit, things I can't just snap my fingers and create here by typing a name into the "create community" page.

I'm not bothered by it. The transition will happen in time. Rome wasn't built in a day. Etc.

I deleted all my posts and comments, most of my accounts and the official app. I’ve been maybe twice in the past few weeks because of search results. Before it was numerous times a day. Most of the subs I followed moved elsewhere and the Reddit stuff I get second hand via BORU’s discord

Nah. This is my shitpost home now.

Only when a general search brings me to it. I no longer scroll it or actively choose to visit.

My daily reddit use has dropped by an order of magnitude. Now I just subscribe to a few subreddit RSS feeds that I skim through once a day, and that's pretty much it. If I really feel compelled to post something, I'll begrudgingly grab my laptop and head to old.reddit ... we'll see how long that lasts.

I don't. I thought I would miss it a lot, but after replacing rif with lemmy and a few other apps I haven't really been thinking about reddit recently.

I'm the same way now, I used to use reddit daily.

Now, I only use it when I have question, I still google "my question" reddit.

The moment sync died, my engagement with it died.

It's sad, it was great.

But... It is the way he wants it... Well.. He gets it. I don't like it anymore then you do.

You know the song ;) https://youtu.be/5e3sI5xkA0M

I completely stopped using it.

Only if it is a google result. I still have sync app installed :(

Nope, in fact after trying the super delete Suite (failed) I'm creating my own userscript to delete all my old comments. Once it's finished later today I'll post about it on Lemmy for others to use.

15yr old account dead and banned. The only time I check out Reddit is to look at the Western Europeans taking the piss out of each other on 2westerneuropean4u.
