    I mod an 11K sub that is apparently one of the preeminent spaces on the web to follow the latest news on it’s topic. I personally haven’t posted anything new there since the blackout–it’s all been posted here in the Fediverse instead–but I still check in to make sure they’re behaving themselves.

    There are probably specific communities that I’d miss, but the real answer is VOLUME. There’s still more content there.

    more niche / specific communities are just starting here but on reddit they’re already thriving. I’ll visit reddit from time to time to keep up with the latest thing in those, though my time there has been cut significantly.

    in other hand, I really wish we could stop with reddit-related questions in this community… ask those in /c/reddit instead

      me too. But, since the API policy begins. Double posting, ad spamming, irrelevant contents, bots within several subs appears on my reddit home feeds and it is still in acceptable level though. if this reach more than that. I might leave reddit permanently.

    There’s a few niche communities there that don’t exist on Lemmy and likely won’t for a while. Plus, I still dip into AskReddit because it’s a hard habit to break!

    Just a couple of health-related subs that haven’t fully migrated. I don’t particularly want to use Reddit, but I get more value from lore passed down woman-to-woman than I do from doctors who want to attribute everything to hysteria anxiety and depression.

    I’ve switched to Lemmy for random browsing of memes, pop culture, and tech news.

    I’m hoping Lemmy will soon be large enough that major world news events will pop up there, too.

    I still go to Reddit for just a couple of niche communities. Lemmy isn’t large enough for there to be active communities about every TV show and every hobby, yet. Looking forward to when we hit that size.

    Also: no rush. We’re early adopters. Lemmy has gotten a LOT better in the last month, so I’m glad that everyone didn’t rush to join it right away. I’d rather that when small communities consider migrating, they can do so and have a great experience.

    I promised a couple subs I mod to stay on until they find replacement mods. After browsing lemmy, the interface is downright aggravating, though.

    Historical questions and answers to common problems, it’ll take about a decade for Lemmy to catch up. I work in IT and it’s saved my ass quite a few times

      And that’s assuming Lemmy acquires anywhere near the user base reddit had. Reddit just has so much useful information that doesn’t exist elsewhere yet and will for sure take years to come close to.
