Yep, right now, using a search engine with Reddit in the query is still the best option to find an answer to something. Maybe Lemmy fits that in time, but until then, Reddit it is.
I still start my search with site:reddit.com when looking for an answer. I just prefer opening the cached hits so that traffic doesn’t go to reddit but Google instead. Not like there weren’t problems with Google, but this is the closest I can get to “punishing” Reddit but also getting an answer to my question.

Look if reddit has the most useful information on a google search then reddit it is. Doesn’t mean I’m actively browsing it.

Their app is such a pain though. Nofap challenge imposed by reddit. I am on day 30 already.
Isn’t it all on redgifs anyway?

I went from 100+ subs down to just 9, but some communities simply don’t exist in lemmy.
I relapsed when I found out you can patch in your own key to still use third party apps 😬
Can I use RIF?
How do I patch my key into RiF?
You’ve got my attention. Lack of third party apps is what keeps me away…

maybe the fediverse is a nice place, while the mainstream platforms are just for dopamine
This is a classy way of saying porn
Sure, but not only.
Exactly.
If you moderated a sub before the API ban and used the Boost app, then Boost still works for you. Thank god for my tiny sub.
Most of the niche subs don’t have equivalents here.
I was completely off reddit, except that lemmy news communities keep banning my accounts for not wanting to kill my neighbors for being capitalists.
