I haven't cut Reddit out completely, as much as I dislike the organisation, I did enjoy the community and it'll still be a huge source of information for a while yet. But once RIF stops working I won't be using my phone anymore, just my PC. Lemmy is growing and it's fun to witness it

No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Since they confirmed that won't change their mind about the API changes, I uninstalled infinity and I only spend time here. So far has been great!

Only came back to reddit to edit my profile stating where Ive switched to (kbin in my case).
Left one comment on a post asking for advice telling them an answer was posted on the subs's kbin equivallent.
Other than that, I don't plan to log back in, and if I need to search something I do it adding https://reddit.adminforge.de/
I am
I check back in periodically, but I'm making an effort to participate on here as much as possible. Loving it so far. Yeah, there are still a few kinks to be worked out, but overall the transition has been seemless to me.
The biggest issue I have come across is trying to wrap my head around instances and how to browse what where.
I dowloaded Jerboa and started on lemmy.world, and when I found out about all the others instances and different sites to browse and subscribe to.
Im sure with some more time, I'll get a handle on it.
No, I haven't spent any time on Reddit since the closure, except for looking at r/Pics and their John Oliver err, protest. I haven't spent too much time on Lemmy though, that's because I've been busy helping out with an app for it :P
Pretty much haven't gone back to reddit at all. I've been trying to transfer to Lemmy, but getting much of my scrolling fix off instagram nowadays.
My only traffic to Reddit in over a week was search based. My only engagement was here and Facebook.
I miss Relay something awful. The mobile lemmy site has some strong inconveniences, the mobile app is missing some outright features.
I'd still rather be here than there.
Quit reddit entirely after the blackout. Was kind of a wake up call for me. Not to go way over the top but wanna move away entirely from the Zuckerberg empire(WhatsApp, Facebook & Instagram), Twitter and even LinkedIn(if this is even possible?). Baby steps.
I’m new here, is it stupid that I made an account here and on kbin.social?
Technically you can access anything posted in either instance from either site. But I did the same thing before I understood federation, so don’t worry. You are not alone. Except maybe in a philosophical view.
I see! Guess I need to read up on how federation works

I have been on reddit more but with ublock origin installed and only to post John Oliver and to help with the protest. When the month is over I wont be posting any more to reddit.

Yeah I stopped using Reddit when the boycott started and don't plan on going back(went back to add nonsense to my old comments). Hoping to see a larger migration as well.
Yup just got here. Never heard of this site u til yesterday on Reddit LOL
Yes. The fact that I routinely view by All, and it's pleasant, is lovely.
I am for sure. I just head over for one maybe two subs that I cannot replace (yet), and only once or twice a day (instead of constantly).
Besides that may random scrolling and news related needs are fully satisfied by lemme.
For me, there's not enough activity on here yet and still some subreddits that haven't got equivalents here.
I try to spend most of my time over here, but i head over to Reddit when I want a sub that isn't available on Lemmy.
I only use reddit through Relay third party app, once it is gone, I cannot use reddit anymore, reddit without it is so bad that it is same to jump to Lemmy. So I am adjusting now and just using Lemmy/Jerboa.
I haven't opened reddit in 4 days
