It is possible to estimate?

    I mostly have. However I do not spend anywhere near as much time on Lemmy as I did on reddit. When all the third party stuff started going down I really started to assess how I used the Internet and had to change things. I was using Sync for Reddit on Average 2.5 hours a day which is just insane. Over the course of a decade it was like a year of real time and was really eye opening how much time I was wasting.

    Now I set an app timer for Sync for Lemmy for 1 hour a day I rarely hit it.

    I do check reddit, but I do not have an app installed, it’s mostly to check something specific rather than endlessly scroll.

    I didn’t. However, I read Lemmy until I run out of interesting posts, then switch to reddit until the ads make me angry. Then I do something productive.

    I have to stop by there every now and then because I’m looking for something and the answer is on a reddit post.

    But for daily chilling/posting I’m all for Lemmy.

    I lurk but Reddit is completely dead to me. I haven’t used it more than once or twice since the API change

    I did. No apps on my phone anymore, and any time I have to visit the site I block Google from automatically signing me in. So I’ve used the site but not as an active user.

    Still waiting for good search engine discoverability for Lemmy. Seems like Reddit is set up for that but not Lemmy. If that would work, I’d dropped Reddit altogether and start prioritizing Lemmy.

    I only use it once a week on a specific niche subreddit that hasn’t migrated elsewhere. I may very occasionally browse a post or two if I’m bored, but I don’t comment on or upvote anything outside that one niche subreddit. So I haven’t 100% stopped using it, but my usage has dropped by a lot.

    I’m now spending 90% of my shit scrolling time here instead of Reddit (using Sync mainly) and I love it!

    I Reddit exclusively on my desktop now, not on mobile where I did most of my browsing. I also pared back my usage to fewer communities.

    I use Discuit primarily now, checking Lemmy (Beehaw mostly) very occasionally.

    Me! I’ll still end up on Reddit occasionally from Google searches for stuff but I very much appreciate having a place to mindlessly scroll and read which isn’t capitalistic

    I dropped Reddit but my Lemmy usage certainly isn’t what my Reddit usage was. I wish more of the websites I frequented had their own forums like the old days.

    Count me as one. I haven’t been back since sync went dark. I do get frustrated with not being able to find that niche information/answer to a question by adding site:Reddit to a search though - I know it’s my choice though
