I'm not on "Lenny" terms yet, I still refer to him as "Leonard".

As for Lemmy, it's almost completely replaced Reddit for me. Except for the times I search for something and the best result is a Reddit thread from 3 years ago

I completely left Reddit. A week before Apollo shut down I slowly started to leave subreddits and cleaned my post and comments. The moment Apollo stopped working, Reddit was dead to me either. Lemmy is now my new home.

Same, but after RiF. Reddit became a posterchild for the corporate greed so fuck them.

[–] remotelove@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I am sad about RIF. It blocked all the ads, didn't show all the shitty awards, was super clean, the video player worked well and the mod tools were awesome.

On a side note, its sad demise led me to Lemmy, so all is well.

Already did. Now I only visit Reddit to check out some niche communities that are not on Lemmy yet.

[–] CoderKat@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah, I'll probably still check Reddit when it's in Google search results, too, but I'm no longer visiting regularly and I hope that someday I'll be able to replace it for the niche cases, too.

exactly. the front page sucks ass. lemmy has a better all page.

Lots of new, unique communities and the occasional titty? I'm sold.
