I deleted my 9 year old account once Bacon Reader stopped working for me.

I still use reddit but only when Google search results points me to it and via a teddit (alternative frontend) instance so I don't give them a dime with ads nor a visit, but teddit is slowly dying (Error: 429 "Too Many Requests") because they decreased the limit of posts it could load, so you have to switch between instances until it finally loads, but thankfully, a script does that for you automatically (thanks to bezier-curve from Hacker News https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36726442) : https://pastebin.com/zFJ5nb42

Also, to be automatically redirected from reddit to your favorite teddit instance, you could use this extension for Firefox (I'm not using Chrome sorry) : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/reddit-to-teddit-redirect/

To help prevent 429 errors from happening, you can still help by creating more teddit servers! : https://codeberg.org/teddit/teddit

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.

Literally have not been back since I decided to leave before the blackout.

Considering incised to spen hours a day s rolling that place, I haven't missed it and just moved on. 12years or more I was a regular contributor and viewer and quit cold turkey style :)

I occasionally click on links in search results. Other than that, it’s been more than a month since I used it the way I used to. I don’t miss it. Mastodon and lemmy have filled the space that used to be available for Reddit.

Nope, and I even stop searching for episode discussions on TV shows because most of it is on reddit.

Only when I search for something and there is a result from reddit, I read that and only that one. Otherwise, no.

Yes, but I've realised that I go in less and less.

Totally off reddit. I have seamlessly replaced one with the other.

I basically only use my phone these days and when third party apps died so did Reddit to me.

Got a couple niche subs I still check once in a while. Otherwise I don't read reddit anymore nor do I comment and vote.

Yes, but I’ve deleted all of my posts & comments.

I needed a tech question answered, and a Reddit post had the exact question I was asking, I clicked on it and the answer had been deleted.

The irony made me laugh.

I quit Reddit as soon as it came out how much they wanted to charge Christian for running Apollo. Joined up on /kbin and have been incredibly happy with it.

I still use reddit if I'm at my desktop which is rarely. Haven't touched it on mobile since the API change.

I was on the way out a couple of months before the API thing. The content had gotten stale and it was harder and harder to have honest conversations. Posts getting down voted - for every up vote there was a down vote no matter how much it changed. I made a post once that went somewhat viral and it was nothing but a toxic shit show. All I was doing was sharing a hardware mod - not asking for help or opinions. I had really grown tired of it. This migration to the Fediverse was well timed for me. Now have I gone back? Not intentional, like others have said looking for answers - not engagement.

Nope. Having finally hammered down the local vernacular ("instances"/"communities") of Lemmy, I am so at home here. I miss RiF, but Liftoff is serving me well

Actually I left reddit long before migration.... Came to know about Lemmy only after the API controversy...

Yes, because Lemmy is still at that early phase of its existence where half of the posts complain about reddit, Threads, Twitter, etc, and that's just not something I'm interested in. Waiting for it all to die down a little.

I visit some subs occasionally on old reddit, but have never logged in again. Fuck u/spez.

Not really, I try to avoid it even when something i'm looking for is there, though sometimes I just cant be bothered to look elsewhere. I hope someone gathers all the useful information from there into archive somewhere, in case something happens to it.

All the time. Still getting my feet wet with lemmy
