Have you left reddit forever? Have you deleted your account and posts? Just curious

    I do. My sole account there is actively promoting migration and boycott, 90% of the posts/comments is in Reddit Alternatives and 10% in ModCoord (throwing gasoline on the fire).

    I deleted my 14+ year account (after deleting my content) right after the AMA: never going back. Have used RIF for as long as it has been around and it’s going dark June 30. Bridge burned. No regrets.

    gone for good - today was a good day without reddit sucking my soul out. happy to be part of something that does not make me feel like a serf on a corporate plantation.

    I’ve deleted my 10 year-old account and I’m considering deleting the others I don’t use just to drive a point. I only have a particularly naughty account on the Snoosite and the Birdsite each where I get source material for the Fediverse, though. Tee-hee.

    Well, I’ve been here since before the blackout. I’ve been following the Fediverse for a while, registered on Diaspora, Mastodon and others.

    The only reason I wasn’t really using Lemmy much, or at all, is because there were not many people to interact with. But look at it now!

    I have indeed already left Twitter for good, using only Fosstodon, I might as well leave Reddit for good.

    Definitely. The signal that reddit sent was pretty straightforward. I’ll probably miss some of the communities there butI prefer to build on a safer ground which turned out to be distibuted

    I’m having fun here, will likely stay for long.

    My main issue right now is that, I use Reddit mostly for participating in tech communities and they don’t seem to exist here… yet.

    I hope that changes in the soon future.

    Difficult to make that call. I will say that having the hand forced to find alternatives was eye opening. I feel like engaging in this space is more pleasant, but there is a definite learning curve. I find it refreshing that there is a consistency of content after leaving and coming back after a few hours. On the flip side, the one thing I enjoy about the Reddit experience is the evolution of the comments over time. There just isn’t quite the same throughput here and threads just aren’t real dynamic. I feel like going forward there is likely to be a mix of both, with the hope that this takes hold.

    Moving here for the foreseeable future, but don’t think I’ll be deleting my reddit account. Just like the gaslit partner in a toxic relationship. I am hoping reddit becomes better. Until then, I am moving here to reevaluate.

    Also I cannot live without my patient gamers subreddit and my nosleep subreddit

    Over 10 years on Reddit. Will delete the account. Will mostly waste my time on kbin and lemmy.

    I only use my phone so I’ll bounce between both until Relay stops working and then stop using Reddit. If Relay keeps working then I’ll keep using Reddit. Simple.
