Appears that this doesn’t include July numbers. I think most of the people leaving Reddit, myself included, didn’t do it until our 3rd party apps actually got killed on July 1st. Will be interesting to see these numbers at the end of the month.
I’d say I slowed down my usage, as I looked for alternatives. But yeah, once Apollo stopped working, I cut out Reddit cold turkey.
Same. Apollo or bust.
Now happy wefwef.app and Tildes user, though. So not all is bad (=
I’m slowly weening myself off, but the main problem is that Reddit has a massive backlog information that’s still useful to reference. Almost any question you search online comes back with a reddit thread.
Lemmy and the fediverse has a ton of potential, but we’re really lacking in terms of content parity. Hell, even just communities vs subreddits.
Yeah but that will change over time, I think we’ve got the potential to make much better tech communities than Reddit had especially as this increasingly becomes the defacto nerd hangout
Exactly… My Boost for Reddit stopped working on the 5th and here I am. 😇
My third party app is still running for me so honestly I’m still using reddit for a lot of browsing. It doesn’t have to be all or nothing though thats my take. I’ll slowly move here if it grows and if not well, we will see.
Your kind isn’t welcome here! Lol just kidding. What app still works?
