…No? I’m pretty sure that was the first massive wave of relatively diverse active users. Lemmy was pretty fringe before that happened. I think there are tens of thousands of us.
Same here! My app stopped working (rip rif… You will be missed…!), I thought I give the official reddit app a try, it wouldn’t let me log in no matter what I tried and then I heard of lemmy via feddit. Only went back once to delete all my data and to close my account.
In hindsight, I’m really glad reddit did this. They single handedly gave their competitor (Lemmy) critical mass to be a true alternative. Without enough users, it’s just not the same.
I used the reddit app many many moons ago, but then discovered Boost. Once it quit working flawlessly, Lemmy became home. And Boost for Lemmy is wonderful :)
Left reddit during the api/apps fiasco.
There are DOZENS of us!

That’s a LOT of dozens!
Same. Reddit without Relay isn’t worth it
Me too

Me too, although I also switched instances from lemm.ee to lemmy.ca when they shut down
This. Fuck reddit
Yep. Also left digg during their ad push fiasco to go to reddit.
