Are you 100% lemmy/mbin/piefed for your forum/thread life or are you still using reddit for something?
You must log in or # to comment.
100% Lemmy. If I end up on reddit, it’s because I googled something.
Me too, except I’m 100% off Google too 😆
We have porn here too.
Mostly weird cartoon porn.
OlafOglaf is pretty good though. 😄Can you drop some links 🧾
Oops, sorry. That’s “Oglaf” with a “g”, my mistake.
Most of which actually comes from Reddit.
Nowhere near enough though. Especially if you cut out the straight from reddit imports.
Remarkably specific porn
It’s all reposted stuff from elsewhere.
and AI slop?
I still use reddit for a few niche communities and browsing comments. I post alot and love my time here but the activity isnt enough to replace it for me yet
Google search clicks. Forwarded posts from Reddit.
TV, Movie, Anime, Video Game, Discussion Threads.
It’s non-existent on Lemmy.
I don’t really post anything, I just lurk and read the discussion, don’t really have motivation to post since I’m kinda anti-corporate right now, but I just wanna absorb all the info they have to satisfy my brain’s curiosity.
On occasion I’ll check in on some niche hobby boards that don’t really have an active Lemmy variant, or large archive of content yet. Sometimes you want to see a flashlight beamshot comparison of a Nichia 519a 5000k led compared to a 5700k from a particular manufacturer, and it’s just not on Lemmy.
Note that while that’s probably true, if you’re interested and not aware, we do have !flashlight@lemmy.world here.
As much as I hate to say it, I’d still much rather go to google and search reddit, than go on any other website google proposes. Everything is just trying to get you to buy nonsense or scroll through a 10 page article for a one sentence solution that is probably outdated.
Once in a while a Reddit thread will come up in search, reading that thread is the extent of my Reddit usage.
I use reddit as a comparison when explaining lemmy and the fediverse to the uninitiated.
@n7gifmdn @Vandals_handle “it’s like if reddit worked like email”
Problem is most young people nowadays won’t know how email works
Whenever it comes up in a web search and I absolutely need it for whatever information I’m looking for, mainly troubleshooting stuff
yeah, sadly there’s a lot of niche technical problems that have only ever been answered as reddit posts. about the only time I go there either.
Sometimes it’s in the top few search results. Otherwise I don’t .
Pretty much everything remotely niche. Subs devoted to individual video games, for instance. The only game I play that’s on lemmy is https://lemmy.world/c/pixeldungeon.
nah I stay away from facebook
huh?
exactly… they are all the same to me.
corporate garbage
@Fiivemacs @zjti8eit oh, that’s what you meant haha
yeah, certain wasn’t clear to me ;-)
sorry I am not always clear when I speak/type
From recent experience it feels like Reddit is stricter with bans and access than FB, and applies more tracking and detection tech, lest your previously anonymous internet persona upset a mod.
I read the comments, since lemmy doesn’t have many
I tried to use it a few days ago and the toxicity is insane, it feels like Reddit is filled with trash talking kids to draw attention to themselves or AIs.
You can’t have a healthy discussion there anymore.
