I'm using both. I have a few communities I'm growing and I'm posting as much as I can.

Reddit still is obviously more active, but I'm noticing that business is picking up here lately. Once it turns into a 60/40 or 50/50 in which one is more active I'll make the jump full time to Lemmy.

Yes. My username says it all. Late to the party because the fortress of Lemmy has been extremely difficult & discouraging to scale but today I finally did it.

[โ€“] secret300@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 7 months ago

Yep, easiest choice ever and the tech behind Lemmy and activity pub is so cool

So long, dental plan!

Yup, was a loyal Sync For Reddit user. Wasn't sure how I was going to cope to be honest but Lemmy has been great so far.

[โ€“] Pencilnoob@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago

Yep, other than ending up at Reddit because I'm searching for something, which I'll call passive use. My active use of posting and commenting is entirely on Lemmy

This made my day ๐Ÿ˜‚

Interesting username lol

I use both side by side, I'm hoping for Lemmy to grow, but I know that in the near future Reddit will still continue to be active

I made my account yesterday so I can't really say if I will stick with Lemmy in the long term, but for now mostly yes, most of the communities I like are here and Lemmy feels a lot nicer than Reddit. But there are a few communities that are still only on Reddit so I'm using both

Now that I made this keyboard arrow navigation script answer is ..... YES!

It's really not far off, Reddit is on borrowed time and so is twitter and the rest....

[โ€“] elf@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 years ago

Who's Lenny? I'm waiting for Sync.

[โ€“] Scolding7300@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

They were going to kill Infinity. Still worked on July 1st but decided to just preemptively pull thr plug

[โ€“] Zedd_Prophecy@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

In starting to, but it's more like the old days now where I'll go to my list of cool sites and only if all those run out and I'm bored enough to doomscroll will I visit the R.

[โ€“] malcyon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'm really trying to. But it seems like all anyone wants to talk about here is Reddit and Twitter.
