i think most reluctantly have some use for it still. i only use it for gamethreads and the shittiest of shitposts, or for super niche things that don’t have any equivalent on lemmy. at the end of the day, i think people would rather stay connected with their communities than abandon them, even if it means providing value for some of the stupidest and most malignant people in the world at the same time. look how many people are still using twitter
I had to create a new work account on reddit as it has the by far best community for sysadmins I have ever found, and I needed help with an undocumented issue in a system we use at work.
I did a couple of weeks ago, after being off it for a couple of months…it was awful. I closed my account and deleted my saved login info. I only go to it now if it comes up in a search and seems relevant.
"Despite these concessions, dozens of Redditors promised to stop using the site altogether "

Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve logged into Reddit since I started using Lenmy
I haven’t really either. Apart from the the odd Google search results here and there, but not actually logging in.

no need to exaggerate 😬
I didn’t see you at the convention in Munich last summer.
I teleconferenced in. Did you go to the seminar on chafing?
I’m doing my part. 🫡
