I used to check the front page at least once every day, and occassionally check specific subreddits. Now I don’t look at reddit unless theres some drama, like mods getting purged, then I’d go there and enjoy the drama. Occasionally there will be questions that only reddit has the answer to so I have to reluctantly use it. I got my uBlock Origin ready to kill all the ads. That shitty website will not get a cent out of me.

What about you? Do you still use reddit?

    yes, but only for specific content. my city and state have a very active subs that just hasn’t really taken off on Lemmy yet. there’s a lot of news from both that i can’t get anywhere else. similarly i’m pretty active on r/dmacademy and there just isn’t a community on lemmy that i’ve found that is similar yet. i think when those communities take off here i’ll finally cut the cord on reddit.

      Ditto. These smaller locality subs are unlikely to take off on lemmy IMO. I think reddit would have to shut down before people would look for an alternative.
