How many of you use Lemmy and ONLY use Lemmy vs Reddit?

I peek into Reddit when I have a specific need. They have some good miscellaneous information posts. Otherwise, I'm here.

If anything I'm surprised by the constant Reddit comparisons, because this has never felt like Reddit to me.
It feels like a 90s forum. Small, focused on a handful of topics, you always argue with the same five guys about the same five things... It's not a Reddit replacement at all. Which is why I'm here, I don't contribute to Reddit and never have.
wrote last edited by [email protected]Admittedly I can't see why it's that surprising, the format is almost a carbon copy of Reddit.
When I think of old forums, I think of the chronological-only format with no voting. There is a top post in a thread, and all replies that follow are a single chain of chronological posts. No nested threads of parent/child comments that help keep conversations more organized, and no upvoting/downvoting which affect the sort criteria.
Not to mention older forums are usually directly admin-managed throughout, as in not just anyone is able to start a subforum/community on their own for a given interest within a site that they then moderate and can appoint their own co-moderators for. There's a site admin or admins, and maybe a group of admin-appointed moderators who help manage the entire thing.

Discord, YouTube and Twitch. Even if I don't count 1 because I don't really build any online presence, all 3 together probably count as having mainstream social media no matter how strict the definition.

Reddit stopped being mainstream for me since the API bullshit, so... hardcore I am, guess I

It's not that I try to ne hardcore. Reddit was alright, but I felt subconciously it is going to shit for some time. But I liked the format, so I stayed. The API fiasco just showed the really bad face of it (mainly how it was handled) and made an opportunity for people to talk more about alternatives. Sure, Lemmy doesn't have as much stuff as Reddit, especially for more niche topics but I enjoy my stay much more.
I peeked in a couple of times but not for long.

Lemmy is my only social media at this point. I have a few other sites I look at for information but they are tech sites. The tech sites I look at are not mainstream anymore either.

I use Discord and Lemmy, no Reddit outside of reading threads on how to do something in a game

I got banned on reddit for not caving up with my subreddits and moved here permanently. I left a long time before they banned me, but came back to check on the state of my stuff from time to time. And now I refuse to open any link pointing to reddit.
