Switch back to what? I nuked my account’s posts and comments, then deactivated it, and I’m here.
So yeah, I’m here to stay, like it so far. I’m just hoping the enthusiasm I feel, and see with the others, won’t die out in a few days/weeks.
Gonna stick with Lemmy, but monitor Reddit’s activity.
I expect a lot of subreddits will be left indefinitely closed as well, which the admins are probably going to take over forcefully.
Lemmy is pretty nice to use so far.
Yeah, Reddit is currently a useful repository of some kinds of information and that won’t instantly migrate. It’s sad that even though every comment must be suspect when there can be any ulterior motive, it’s still often more informative than browsing the general internet, not least because the results from Google are dominated by manipulative trash sites.
But I’d definitely apply pressure towards Lemmy - I intend to use it first and encourage people to come on over. Reddit brings nothing special to the party, it’s just a simple but well conceived framework for people to interact (come to that, in 15 years has it improved in any way apart from 3rd party plugins and and apps?). The people are the thing, the platform just facilitates and protects the interactions (the latter will be the big challenge for Lemmy if it takes off).
Switch back to reddit but the minute Lemmy or kbin or whatever gets up to reddit speed, will switch for good.
use both
both. this platform seems interesting but im not ready to quit reddit just yet, especially since theres really little content here
If I’m being honest I’ll be using both at least until Sync officially shuts down. After that reddit will be 100% old.reddit on the laptop, and when the quality takes a dive from mods quitting/mod tools getting nuked then lemmy all the way
The official app is terrible and not worth suffering for a dopamine hit. I know spending all that time scrolling on the phone isnt good for my mental health so I suppose this makes for a good opportunity to readjust.
I am really enjoying the concept of Lemmy but am still learning about it. I’ll probably stick around to see how it grows and evolves. I kind of like not being on Reddit.

80/20, Lemmy/Reddit.
Trending to 100/0.
Preferably staying here. We need to keep growing Lemmy.
I’m going to try to just use lemmy. Reddit removing moderators over this is BS and too much.
But, until everything I used it for is replaced, I will still participate in some communities over there.
Staying away from Reddit for sure. The people make Reddit, not the corporation. I go where my people are.
I’m not going back. I needed a kick in the pants and I got it. Just want to edit all my posts/comments and get my saved posts/comments from 10+yrs of research.
rif basically was reddit to me. If that app goes I won’t use it on my phone anymore. I think I’ll still use old.reddit.com, but if that goes I’ll never use it again.
Same. I don’t remember the last time I visited the site on a browser…
I’m going to stay. Whether it’s Lemmy or something else, the fediverse is how I want to engage with the internet.
I’m a mod of a moderately sized subreddit (~15k) with lots of people who use Reddit only to interact with that community. We’ve been trying to disseminate information about our official Lemmy, Kbin and Raddle alternatives, but adoption has been slow to nonexistent. So I’m probably going to stick around in both, if for no other reason that to moderate said subreddit.
I’m having the opposite feeling. I also mod a sub of that size. The thought has crossed my mind to make that community here, sticky a thread in the sub, turn off automod, sign out, and let nature do the rest.
