I just don’t use Reddit at all anymore.
Same. I don’t miss it. I’m really enjoying Lemmy and the fediverse!
/c/Risa is all I need.
Still, when I’m looking for a solution for a specific problem, reddit is basically the only reliable source at the moment.
Wish there was a quick way to search for posts across all instances using search engines.
Reddit has years of community data. Lemmy will get there one day as long as we keep at it.
Yeah. What Reddit has is the advantage of getting there first. We can catch up.
I don’t actively use it either, but sometimes you’re trying to fix some esoteric error that no one has experienced since the existence of the Western Roman Empire and the only place where a solution exists is Reddit. In those cases I kinda have to visit that wretched hive.
Same. However, I have rarely been able to solve a technical problem with Reddit posts or comments. It’s a better source for random experiences about something.
For random technical problems with new software or hardware, Reddit quality is not as good as it used to be, IMHO.
For somewhat niche hobbies, like my mushroom growing, subjective experiences may be helpful to take into account. Reading dozens of different opinions about a problem in a hobby that has hundreds of different variables has its uses. (For example, if you want to test something specific, you can get an idea about the range of conditions to test.)
LPT: Don’t use reddit because it’s a fucking dumpster fire.
You think we’re any better?? I think the whole internet is a dumpster fire, and that’s the way it should be.
Yes: Dumpster fire or not, Lemmy is definitely better than reddit. No question.
It’s more of a recycling bin fire
I used to work in the waste sector - been to a lot of dumps. Let me tell ya, public sector dumps were literal dumpster fires compared to their private counter parts. Inefficient. Years behind in technology. Weighted down by nepotism and typical government employees.
It was such a relief when I knew I was assigned to a private sector dump where things just fucking worked because people just let it work.
