I can't say I will stay on Lemmy. But I won't return to Reddit.

Yes. For the time being. Would love to see larger migration from reddit.

I realized how much of a marketing cesspool Reddit has become once I left it. That along with the whole doom scrolling has been toxic to my mental health. So I am much better off without it.

That said, the fediverse seems to be a little too small especially for niche topics. Plus the this world still needs some tool/interface to unify it and make it easier to use. I still go back reddit once in a while for those niche communities but I have logged out for the first time in a decade+ from reddit.

I have started focusing on my hobbies more, the whole reddit fiasco has been a reminder that it is not just FB that is bad, it is everything including Reddit and in time possibly places like this if it grows.

Yeah! Fills my reddit void

Yes, obviously.

Yeah!

Yes. I’ve been been on lemmy.world and kbin.social for the past week and the growth and content maturation is good enough for me now, and improving fast.

I deleted my Reddit account and all my post history yesterday.

Definitely! Immediately before switching to Lemmy I found myself scrolling looking for something interesting, meanwhile everything on Lemmy is fresh and exciting. Loving it so far!

I’m liking it, especially with this WefWef web app thing for iOS. Staying because I’m not going back to Reddit

Yes I'd be an idiot to go back to a closed system under corporate control. Its not the first time this has happened and it won't be the last. We are seeing the web closing up now and if we don't vote with our choices and content we will only be left with corporate walled silos with paid subscriptions to read, ads to watch, tracking on everything.... Skip and few steps and we and up with black mirror.

The narrative needs to be democratic. Same thing with privacy , if youbcant have a private conversation you can't bring about change. I hope you'll all stay too

Yesss

Ive found the transition to be seamless. I put Jerboa in the spot where RiF used to be on my phone, and now I dont even think about going to the old site.

Its actually nicer to he around at the nascent stages of Lemmy's popularity. Im catching different communities just by sorting through all/new that I wouldn't have found otherwise

LLL

wefwef app is amazing so I am staying here

Yes

I'm planning on staying here permanently. I'll go into Reddit just to check subreddit names I've subscribed to and see if there's a Lemmy community for it every now and then, but I'm not going to engage with Reddit more than that.

yes

I will stay if you all stay. The site we want is the one with the people. I got sick of talking to bots and seeing ads disguised as social commentary. I would love to have a place to learn and socialize without constantly being bought and sold.

Yes

Lemmy is a game changer for me. First couple of days were confusing, but after adding a slew of communities that resembles my reddit subscription list... I think I'm there.

Now its more of the niche subs that I hope will grow into its own. More specific game communities are needed, because that's more or less the only reason I have to go back to reddit.

I will stay as long as they don't do what Reddit did.

Yes

the Voyager PWA is a big part of why I'm staying. Good UX!

It depends on the tech. I'm not convinced this form of federation is going to work. There's already a lot of tech issues being exposed and drama unfolding between the instances.

I also don't think it will see wide public adoption due to how segmented the communities are.

I hope these issues are resolved, and I'll try to stick it out here. I quit Twitter and am trying Mastodon and I'll do the same with reddit. I'm not willing to just sit by and watch corporations take over our society.

Leaving Reddit for sure. Lemmy is top candidate right now.

Yea, I'm here to stay and help it grow. Reddit even before all this BS just felt...icky sometimes. Lemmy doesn't, and I'm loving the passionate people that are moving here.

I'm a filthy casual, and I think I'll be staying. I might try out Kbin when they get a mobile app, because I'd like to be able to follow mastodon and the fediverse versions of reddit from the same app. But I love it here so far. There are a few subs I really miss (witches vs the patriarchy, some science subs, and a whole bunch of academic and religious subs), but I'm fairly confident that most of those will make their way here eventually. If not en mass, then a trickle of like minded folks.

Yee

Yes!

Absolutely! This place is fantastic!

Hell yeah. I’m happy with Lenny so far and I think this will be a better Reddit in the future.

I think I've figured out Lemmy and this Fediverse thing. So with that, I'll be sticking around.

yes

Yea sure, if more people come and post more interesting content, then sure. I'm mostly a lurker, as I'm sure a lot of people are, so if the non-lurkers are posting content, then yeah, I'll stay.

Yes, but

The site needs a ton of UX polishing to keep "lazy users" hooked (something I think it's critical if you want to harvest as much users as possible from this fire). I feel like software developers tend to be more conscientious internet citizens that fight for their rights and seek independence, so I'm hoping that gives an influx of fixes/bug reports on lemmy's github repo leading to stability, but maybe we also need to find ways to collaborate with front-end/brand design people (?)

Haven't looked back. Im staying.
