There are simply some communities I can’t find on Lemmy. For example, I use subreddits based on admissions to specific colleges that would never be able to function on Lemmy due to its size. I’d much prefer to abandon Reddit altogether but the information I need is usually only there.
Sometimes, but only in one narrow way: Reddit shows up in search results for me, and sometimes I specifically ask it to.
Like “is product X any good?” gives me garbage marketing and clickbait, so I try “is product X any good? site:reddit.com” and I find some helpful threads, often several years old.
But yeah, not logged in, not interacting.
I don’t think I could do that, I would be compelled to comment. But I do still see Reddit in search results for problems I’m researching and the answers are often useful. I will be happy the first time I see a Lemmy result.
Only if I have a specific question, like is this tent better than that tent. But I don’t log in and I haven’t since Boost stopped working.
I do miss it sometimes, but time spent on my phone has gone way down and that can only be an improvement.
Consider deleting your account

Not really. My old account had a curated list of subreddits that was vast (hundreds) and content-wise, kept me miles away from the ugliness that is the actual front page content of reddit.
I went and browsed the front page once after deleting my account and felt kinda sick tbh.
I did go read the episode discussions for several Strange New Worlds episodes and Fionna and Cake though. I miss those big group moments where all the details are discussed and appreciated and nowhere else really has that in the same scale (I hate discord and it’s not the same).
Honestly the only things I miss from reddit is the Imaginary Network. :(
Wish they would make a home on Lemmy/kbin.
What’s that?
