Mostly.
All I'm on Reddit for now is to watch it burn and to participate in the one subreddit I truly care about on there. I'm not participating in anything else on there at all.

I already have. There are some specialized subreddits I still peek at, but otherwise it's Lemmy all the way.
( Ν‘Β° ΝΚ Ν‘Β°)
Infinity is still working at the moment but today I removed it from my home screen and replaced with a Lemmy app. There isn't a community replacement for every subreddit I follow just yet but hopefully Lemmy and other Fediverse services will continue to grow.
In the quest for endless growth all publicly traded companies eventually have to cut costs, jack up prices, or both. The investors expect a return on their investment.
Lemmy doesn't have that debt.
I am 100%. Sadly i donβt think most Reddit users will until lemmy becomes easier to use and gets a functioning IOS app.
Not totally. Reddit is a shithole but it's my shithole
In early June I decided to give Lemmy the old test drive, and I haven't left. Bye Reddit.
Yes. Fuck bullies.
I use lemmy occasionally. I do feel the impact of a significantly smaller community though. A lot of the subreddits I would regularly check are not even here. So unfortunately for now, Iβm forced to use the official app. Tried the RSS route too, but it seems it would be too expensive for me.
Iβm sure the lemmy community will continue to grow, so Iβll stick around.

I registered to try it out. Looks nice so far. Hopefully more users switch and start filling this place with content.
Yep, there's just a couple communities stuck on Reddit that I still look at, but overall I'm around 80% Lemmy 20% Reddit now.
Yes
I did. I had one sub that I wanted to keep up with so I added them into my RSS reader and spend my time on Lemmy.
Not replacing. But trying to be honest. And I'm liking Lemmy with "Connect" app pretty much.
Can't believe Reddit can't pay to any of these Devs to revamp their shitty low performance app.
But anyway. I'm like the idea of the Lemmy instances etc.
Yes. It's different enough that I am not taking it as a one to one replacement, but moving on to a quieter, calmer place.
I thought I might use Tumblr for another angle of replacing part of reddit, but it doesn't seem to be the place for me. I'm not a rabid fan of any one thing, so it seems like so much hype and I don't like the lack of conversation there.
This place has the threaded comments, and respectful conversation.
Yep. I was on Reddit for 12+ years, and used Apollo for many years recently. I never used βnewβ Reddit or the official app. Quit and uninstalled Apollo a few days before the 1st.
Lemmy feels like home. And the fediverse concept is super interesting to me.
Yes, next question
Havenβt quit Reddit yet, but I am only posting or commenting to Lemmy and I exhaust the feed here before browsing Reddit.
Iβm not highly involved in any communities there, else Iβd attempt a mass migration.
