Why or why not and what do you use it for?
Some of the communities I frequent still haven’t migrated over to Lemmy.
Oh hey, this is actually my first Lemmy comment. Sup party people
I keep meaning to go over there and re-save all the links and recipes and stuff that I have saved up from years and years, but I haven’t gotten around to it. I did delete the app from my phone though, so I’m not tempted to scroll it all day (I just scroll Lemmy all day now instead).
Is everyone too afraid to say it? Porn.
Lemmy has a thriving porn community, it’s disgusting you would love it I’m sure.
One good indicator that Lemmy is becoming popular is how many people are posting their bits on it!
Naturally I’m aware of that, however right now it’s only the main communities, smaller communities still lie dormant.
I hope you find what you’re looking for!

oh my God, how terrible!! Where, so I can avoid it?
The legend goes that if you say it three times a naked dude dressed as an embarrassed fox appears and blushes at you (with his penis out)
Lemmy has fully replaced Reddit for my casual scrolling needs. But for research purposes for things like buying advice, tech support, etc I still find myself at Reddit. Lemmy may get there someday, but it’s not there yet.
I didn’t delete my account because I hate permanently removing information from the internet. I get annoyed when links are dead or information is lost. I understand why others are doing it, but I can’t help but be sad at all the information we’ve lost and I won’t contribute to that.
Yes. There’s more contents there. Let’s face it, it’s empty here.
I deleted my account after a week when I found out Sync for reddit was done for. I am now waiting for Sync for Lemmy. I only use reddit when it gives me a result in Google search. So far I am loving Lemmy and Mastadon. I thought about looking at Pixelfed. Even if my friends/family don’t use it.
I deleted my 12+ year account and haven’t looked back. I kind of like the smaller community here, reminds me of the old Reddit days. Looking forward to watching the community grow.
I haven’t cared enough to delete it. Before I would always have a tab open for Reddit and would check it from my phone (on Apollo) throughout the day. Now I only browse Lemmy/Mastrodon/RSS, but if I google something and it comes up with a Reddit link, I have no qualms clicking it to see if it has the information I need.
I don’t intend to ever comment or post on Reddit again, and my page views have gone from many per day to once or twice a week.
Ive been with Reddit since 2007, fuck em.
keeping an eye on my data request and making sure my comments stay deleted
I deleted all my comments and posts but kept my account in case reddit undeletes anything. Also to keep my saved stuff and messages. I don’t feel like it matters if I keep my account or not since I’m not using the site anymore
I go for 2 things.
A sports team I support. There’s a community here on lemmy which I do post in but it’s like 3 of use here haha. Until it picks up I need to get team news somewhere.
Ukraine war daily thread. This is too important to ignore but I am trying to find other sources. Started using mastodon to follow some war commenters.
I feel dirty doing so though.
Considering where Lemmy’s developers stand, it’s probably for the best to get your Ukraine news from more than just here.
Could you expand on that a bit when you have chance, what is the issue and does it affect all instances or are you meaning one particularly? Genuinely curious - suspect you may mean bias or censorship but don’t want to make assumptions.
(Surprisingly for the internet, I’m not going to argue with you if I don’t agree - I am just interested to know why you think what you do and other people reading might also find it useful or interesting!)
Apparently many of lemmys developers are hard core tankies, basically Russia and China apologists who deny/justify China’s genocide, and support Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
I can’t say much for smaller instances, but in some of the bigger instances like lemmy.ml, some anti Ukraine articles get traction. I haven’t really noticed in as much in kbin and .world, but knowing where the devs stand, I try to follow the Ukraine war on platforms outside of lemmy to avoid possible misinformation.
@Roundcat Thanks for this, I really wanted to know what people meant by they accept genocide and it does make me feel like maybe i’ll love across to Kbin a bit more as atm questioning if Lemmy or Kbin is the best fit for me. I do thankfully use Lemmy.world but if Kbin is more accepting and useable might just move across to here. Again, Thank you.
I haven’t 100% given up on maybe, just maybe, baconreader might start working again.
It’s the only way I log in to reddit, and have not been back since the 1st.
In a month or so, I’ll log in through the web browser and figure out how to delete my comments and then remove the account.
Happy enough here that I’ve had no desire to log in to reddit.
