Ask Lemmy

I never post or browse Reddit anymore, but I'll still look at Reddit search results. There's just too much good information on there that you just can't find elsewhere.

Used to use RiF, stopped when the api bullshit went down and all I use are lemmy and Facebook now.

I'd love to only use lemmy, but there aren't enough posts. I use lemmy for 2 days in a row, then reddit for 2-3 days in a row, repeat.

The only social media I really use is Lemmy. I have instagram strictly because that’s where my sibling’s meme group chat is and they don’t want to move. I don’t use it for anything else.

Yup

Lemmy has like 0 discussion about anything not technical or not related to American politics so have to peruse reddit now and then

I actively avoid reddit links for the last 2 years.

lemmy since 2020 and mastodon since earlier this year, I use discord a lot, and a ton of rss feeds. I occasionally check instagram because thats where my wife sends me her memes so I try to remember to get in there at least once a week. I search for reddit answers when looking for stuff like recommendations but I havent had an account for a few years now

Having come from reddit and already boycotting Facebook/Meta I don't feel hardcore using only Lemmy

It meets nearly all of my needs, and if the userbase picks up it will certainly eventually fill those needs as well

I only use reddit anymore for the meta. It's like a zoo. Its users are scarcely self-aware. I know this is conceited but whatever.

I think lemmy being a reddit clone is rather ill-fated but at least for now people generally still post like real human beings. There's something strange about how dialog is basically an algorithm. Reddit is reached some sort of maximum where nothing you can possibly say will deviate the flow of comment sections from the pre-defined talking points. It's like they're all stuck in neurotic thought cycles.

There's a video with Trevor Noah and John Stewart where they talk about how social media is a performance. It's not a "town square" or whatever. It's not really honest in good faith dialog.

Gave up on Reddit after the shit show of 2022. Never looked back.

Browse reddit but only have lemmy account

Besides that , my only other socials (bluesky|tumblr)

Lemmy is my only social media

It is not hardcore i'd actually advise anyone to limit its media following for its own mental health. I never feel better than on vacation during which I barely check news and internet

I stopped reddit a couple years ago, and I only use lemmy. This is like my 6th account, and instance hop. Definitely a system that works better for me.

I use both because people in my home country use reddit and it is pretty useful. Those communities are non-existing in Lemmy.

Only Lemmy

account on lemmy, just lurking the start page once a day for reddit without an account

I don't know if I'm hardcore or not, but I've never had a Reddit account.

I ditched reddit for good two years ago. Now I just use Lemmy, Tildes, and Lobste.rs

I’m a Reddit blackout leaver, never going back. Ever.

Only Lemmy for about a year now

I only visit Reddit is search results take me there for a specific reason. Otherwise, I'm hardcore as fuck

Soon as I figure out Lemmy’s porn options I’m done with Reddit forever.

Til then tho, I’m happy to consume Reddit’s content without spending a single cent towards it or any of its advertisers.

Instagram has its grip on me sadly. Tho after the localhost fiasco I switched over to browser Instagram
