Nothing important here. I just want to see how many people are moving away from Reddit.
Add me to the count!
For me, Reddit died at exactly the same time as the Appolo app did. Fuck reddit’s leaders and their advisors.
Yup add me to the list, loving it here so far!
How does everyone from Reddit feel about the lemmy experience?
As of this moment, there are currently:
- 476 subscribers from lemmy.world
- 61 subscribers from kbin.social
- 30 subscribers from lemmy.ml
It’ll take time, and most importantly content, to entice migration.
Content! That’s the key.
As for the platform, i like the inline commenting, but I miss markdown. Also, it keeps the interface in Greek(??). I do have Greek installed as a secondary keyboard layout for all my physics/maths typing, but having a Greek interface (which I have to change everytime from “Browser’s default” to English, is weird.

The number of communities are a lot smaller for sure. But the ones I need are here; i.e. Iinux gaming, popos, anime, hentai.
I know it’s early days, and this wasn’t exactly something that could be planned for, but have you considered whether this community should be on a separate lemmy instance? What I mean is, it looks like the main motivation to reopen r/pop_os is to keep that content publicly available. But it shows the conflict of having that content on a platform that’s not controlled by the Pop project, or its users, or S76. So far I don’t imagine a conflict with the lemmy.world admin, but can that be guaranteed? Is there (at least planned) functionality for a whole community to move from one lemmy instance to another?
The lemmy.world maintainer has a lot of experience hosting instances for Mastodon, and lemmy.world currently has the best hardware, highest uptime, and now the highest population count compared to other instances.
What other instance would you recommend?
Boost refugee reporting!!
I should probably just uninstall Boost from my phone :( I just opened it and seems to be working, but maybe it hasn’t kicked in yet
There are still some subreddits that I used a lot that [seem like they] haven’t migrated over yet :/ battlestations, intermittentfasting, lostark, oneplus, purdue, my local town, etc. It just sucks a lot since I’m trying to avoid using reddit entirely :(
11 years on Reddit with the current account and maybe around 2 years before that on my first account. It makes me sad to see what’s happening because I really love the community on the subs I participate in. I’m happy to be here though and to see Lemmy growing.
Oh yeah…and fuck Spez!
If you want to tell Reddit people about Fediverse and Lemmy you won’t be able to do that on Reddit. Apparently, Reddit is extremely proactive at censoring anything about Fediverse. It’s also actively removing any criticism of spez including memes and has a block on any post that contains “fuck spez”.
I deleted Reddit from my phone today, right now I’m doing some research about something I wanna do in home assistant but a lot of the information i need is on Reddit so I go on there for that, but only that
Sync refugee reporting for duty!
Long time reddit user… haven’t been back since the protest started and don’t feel the need to for now at least.
I’m already reasonably confident that in the near future kbin/lemmy may well be able to fulfil the ‘idle browsing & keeping up with various interests’ portion of my Reddit use. And that was probably 95% of my Reddit time, so that’s good news.
I’m more concerned about the other 5% - the ‘Reddit as a vast repository of knowledge on how to do/fix/buy/make/etc so many things’… it could take years for the federated alternatives to achieve anything like Reddit’s position there, and there’s a question over how easily searchable it will be. Still, hopefully it’ll come with time.
Here. Currently shredding my reddit post history.
Refugee here. Honestly, I can’t believe they didn’t think of making 3rd party apps pay a reasonable fee, while still getting revenue from the official app’s users. It’s like they are trying real hard to make people hate them. And the way they treated Apollo’s creator…yeah, spez can go get fucked.
Just checking in here.
I’ve deleted my reddit account which ive had since the digg exodus. Uninstalled Boost and moved on… except every time I open my phone I still instinctively go to open it. Muscle memory indicates I may have had a reddit addiction.
