Consider that I’m free to use either of these, and that we are having this conversation here, on Lemmy.

Nevertheless, the thread has been interesting.

I haven’t touched reddit to browse it since I made my lemmy account. I still wind up there from an occasional search with no other relevant results.

The way lemmy functions is vastly superior to reddit IMO and I have no plans to return.

We have far better discussions on Lemmy, but there are some really niche communities I follow on Reddit still because there aren't enough interested folks here on Lemmy.

Lemmy is better, but the communities I care the most about and want to give the most to aren't on lemmy, so I don't really have the luxury of using it quite as much as I'd like. I do like it here, though

lemmy doesn't have spez, so lemmy is better.

Lemmy, reddit is more active and has more content but Lemmy will get there. The front page is awful now. It's full of ads and suggested crap. I subscribed to things for a reason. I liked seeing posts I cared about. This shoving content down my throat approach curiously made me get off the site sooner.

Reddit definitely has more users and more communities that don't exist here but I prefer lemmy because no ads and no corporation trying to sell my data

Lemmy

Still stuck between both, but when I’m on reddit I’m using a sideloaded version of Apollo with my own API key while logged out, so theoretically they can’t actually collect any data.

Reddit is obviously more active, even though a huge chunk of that activity is bots, but I like it here better. My only complaint is that my home page is weird sometimes and doesn’t show posts newer than a day or two.

Lemmy by fucking MILES.

• no ads
• no enshittificafion
• federated ecosystem
• OSS
• self-hostable
• no aggregate karma (so karma farming/selling is completely meaningless)
• userbase genuinely feels a lot less dumb
• loads of other things that I’m forgetting/too lazy to fully enumerate right now

Reddit for sure. But I absolutely refuse to use their app so I use it in the web browser but not a lot because reddit sucks on mobile. So I mostly use Lemmy on my phone.

On desktop I use both.

Only lemmy. I visit reddit maybe once a week now

I deleted 2 Reddit account with over 10M combined karma during the shit show last year. Have never gone back. Lemmy is a million times better, even if I'm missing some of my local communities.

lemmy, but I still check reddit after I'm done here

They IP banned me. So they can suck my 8 inches.

I like Lemmy more. I visit 4 subs on Reddit, not daily. I think it doesn’t have to be an either/or necessarily. I refuse to use their app. Rip baconreader.

Lemmy, overall. There are things I miss from Reddit but whenever I browse it now it's just so full of advertising.

~~Are you serious? We're on Lemmy.~~

Definitely Reddit.

I deleted my Reddit account - way too toxic, too much racism (Russia-hate).

Lemmy for good content and discussion. Reddit still has niche fan communities that will probably never migrate over here, but I can always hope.

What’s a ReDdiT?

Reddit was realy god in my local areal, so thats what immissinhg. Lemmy,isnt just there yet. Not many from my area. So yir i like Lemmy for the lack of adds, and for notsellinhg my data
