Just quit going over there.
Until the Fediverse becomes much larger than it currently is, ditto the robustness of communities here, there's really not much choice for users like me but to keep visiting both sites for the time being.

yeah, what choice is there? they might have to be BORED for a few minutes, otherwise. can you imagine that? looking into the void and not having reddit to distract you? i mean, i just thought about that for 5 seconds and I shit my pants twice.
my solution: if you gotta cave to the craves, READ on reddit but only POST on federated. this will kill them long-term, and for me at least, its an easy "fast" to hold to. If we only post to federated, the quality here will keep going up. Reading doesn't help reddit stay alive (at least not compared to writing, giving them "content").
This seems like the right approach.
Also, as a small-time content creator, for the time-being I plan on posting original content here (such as graphic novel reviews & high-quality samples), then link the Lemmy posts over to Reddit. Over time, hopefully that will draw some percentage of Reddit users over here to view the content.
