It is possible to estimate?
There are dozens of us. DOZENS!

More than dozens.
I mean, how many articles do you need that you’re never going to read on Reddit? You can load up Lemmy with enough communities to keep a good feed of news going.
News? I guess that’s why 95% of communities relying on original content are either dead or non-existant here.
That comes later. You need a good bustling community before a steady stream of original posts comes in.
I’m reading a 7 month old reply but its nice here
( ͡ᵔ ͜ʖ ͡ᵔ )
I’m still here! Thanks for the necro!
I haven’t been back to Reddit since the first day of protests.
Not gonna lie though, I miss it. The niche stuff I went to Reddit for in the first place came here during the drama, but despite an initial push to get some replacement communities going here, they’ve gone almost completely inactive now.
Lemmy has been a decent replacement for /r/all browsing, but it’s not at all a replacement for most of the subreddits I was actually subscribed to
I can’t believe how the mods caved. They could have taken their balls and gone home and Reddit would have felt it
I may have missed some steps but I recall reddit removing and replacing mods of many subs.
It doesn’t matter, because the damage is done. Small communities aren’t what they used to be and the big subreddits are even lower quality.
R/ASOIAF knew about Lemmy and debated internally whether to migrate. I honestly can’t believe they didn’t. They were among the more passionate holdouts
They could have just made a post after setting up a lemmy community and people would have made the move
Also, can mods not delete subreddits? I’m surprised this didn’t happen
Yep. I really wish more had migrated over here from Reddit. Seems like it’s almost business as usual over there according to my friend who still uses it frequently.
I am trying to get the Pokemon instance talkative again but I’m just one woman
I miss TAZCirclejerk and Eyeblech the most.
According to Google trends, the people who left are an insignificantly small number, Reddit has still grown in search popularity over the last year. However, if you’ve browsed Reddit since the shutdown, you know that this isn’t the whole story, engagement and quality are both down.
Dropped Reddit and never went back.
Edit: Gotta take the flow and promote !bassment@feddit.de while this post is hot. A community for Bass-Guitar players I’ve been building since the Reddit blackout. Come join us!
Same. I stopped visiting after the boycott started. A couple of days before rif went down, I popped back in to say bye to my friends on there and that was it.
Consider destroying your old comments and deleting your account

I did consider it, but most of my posts are in a private sub anyway. I guess I’m holding on to the slim hope that one day spez will feck off and someone sane will be put in charge. I do miss that sub, a lot of cool people there. Unfortunately I don’t think a single one signed up to lemmy, but I tried.
Yep. Had plenty crafting communities on there, got plenty crafting communities on here. I’m all good!
Only thing I regret was deleting my account before Redact had a chance to do its’ work on my account.
Sure it is possible to estimate, but the chance the estimate is any better than a guess is pretty much zero.
The only definite number I have is one.
And my axe. This is still funny, right?
Absolutely
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. I can keep going, they’re all winners.
We’ll watch your carreer with great interest.
A perfect 5/7!
with Rice!
And my Old Spice.
I did. To all the people on Reddit who confidently said “you’ll be back in a few days” turns out you were very wrong lmao
I stopped using Reddit on my phone, which was most of my Reddit time, but I still use it on my PC.
On mobile I exclusively browse Lemmy.
I would totally migrate completely to Lemmy, but the general audience here is a bit too… radicalised for me. Sometimes I just want to relax, read some interesting link and interact in the comments.
After reading @StarkillerX42@lemmy.ml’s comment, I’m not sure if there is a way to estimate.
I do think we can reliably say: Not enough. However, it’s pretty cozy here so I don’t mind for now.
Said bye bye ever since the blackout, haven’t been back. RIP RIF
I did. Fuck reddit.
I’m smart enough to know you’re looking for a calculated estimate, yet dumb enough to add “I did it” for you to add to your count. Happy counting!
Me! I’ll still end up on Reddit occasionally from Google searches for stuff but I very much appreciate having a place to mindlessly scroll and read which isn’t capitalistic
I just switched from Sync to Sync. The transition was bumpy but I’m still on Sync.
I was a heavy reddit user. Don’t go there anymore. I’m done. There’s just a moral line that was crossed, and that’s that. Same with facebook. It’s over. Now it’s the constant fight to keep google at bay, but that’s what it is.
Hardly use reddit anymore. Won’t lie, Lemmy doesn’t seem to be anywhere near as rich in content but its a blessing in disguise because I mindlessly scroll less.
