Asklemmy

I think it's interesting that people say all third party apps for Reddit are dead because not all of them are dead.

I just haven't been on it since some time before the API debacle.

I like the content on Lemmy, and I've had much better experiences here in terms of discussion. But I suspect it really depends on your interests. Tech folks seem to be better represented at the moment, especially for historical reasons.

But as others said, post content!

There's definitely some Reddit communities I miss. In fact, I recently redownloaded Reddit on my phone to get my fix. Granted, a lot of the communities I miss are NSFW anyway, so Reddit doesn't get any money from me using them.

I agree 100%. I set up a home server after reddit fell, and unfortunately I've been having to use reddit to ask a lot of my questions. The communities for the stuff I need to ask here on Lemmy just don't exist, and on reddit they do, and you'll get responses pretty quickly.

For any kind of programming questions reddit has been far better than lemmy simply because it is significantly more populated.

I went from being on reddit daily to not opening it for almost 2 or 3 weeks now. I haven't had an issue content wise, sure there is some decent informational on the site but, I find a lot of information on it to be outdated anyway

When I finish watching a tv show, I go to the related sub to see best memes. Nobody can take that away from reddit.

I did reinstall Infinity a few times. But the limit on viewed posts is a good way to keep me away.

Nope. I actually post link instead of just waiting for people to post them.

Also, sorting by "new" helps a lot

the only content im missing is from 1001albumsgenerator subreddit because that was already a pretty small subreddit and theres no way itll get to that size on here. so i check every few days to see whats on there

Haven't been back

It's always the same thing, why is there no post aging ? Is there just not enough content ? Lemmy needs a better sorting algorithm with more options for control by the user. Something to control the aging value. Also automatically aggregate communities from several servers, like every /c/book community on the fediverse.

DDG search still pull it up, so I have to go out of my way to search for stuff here first

Only problem i have with lemmy is that after scrolling for a bit i end up wading through posts with 0 comments and 2 upvotes, which are inevitably just links to something i do not give a singular toss about.

But that's honestly kinda just good, it forces me to not just stare at my computer nonstop.

No, but I still very occasionally check it but only every couple of days for the niche communities, but only because my reddit app of choice still works - but as soon as it stops I will not miss it.

I still browse reddit occasionally to watch videos like/r/crazyfuckingvideos or to read discussion on thr war /r/credibledefense or certain game subs like /r/chess or /r/slaythespire

I haven't made a comment or voted on anything since the API change though. All of the content I generate going forward will go exclusively to Fediverse.
