Yeah, I feel like there’s more likely to be a bigger exodus of third-party app users to the “official” Reddit app (which was itself a third-party app at one point before it was bought up) than there is to be users to Lemmy or Tildes or wherever. I think a lot of casual Reddit users just don’t care about this whole thing and they’ll just use whatever. Over time they’ll migrate (assuming content creators also move on).
Yes. I’ll use old.reddit/.compact (I think they removed that feature, I think I’ll use some chrome extension on kiwi browser to get a usable old.reddit interface) together with the official app. I already had to use the official app for chats but never really used it extensively and definitely don’t want to in the future.
I’m on reddit just for a few specific subreddits and there aren’t here on Lemmy unfortunately, I’ll stay on reddit no matter what. I’ll still lurk here for communities that have alternatives on Lemmy. But the relatively small user base on Lemmy doesn’t help for an enjoyable surfing experience.
Oh, I need to add, Jerboa is more buggy than official reddit app at the moment. I think I need to use the website instead
r/ApplyingToCollege and related subreddits. It’s like the whole reason I have been using reddit at all (I’m a rising senior)
I occasionally used reddit for German memes also because I’m convinced you can learn languages just by looking at memes, and I can find these on Lemmy.
I’m definitely not the average reddit migrant though so this is kind of a me problem perhaps
Yes I’ve been enjoying feddit.de since I came here, they’re good
I’m looking for the American college admissions, the largest college-related community on Lemmy is !college (idk how to denote channels) with 146 subscribers and even then it’s not what i’m looking for
I guess I’ll finally get in to some college in next 6 months and dump reddit finally
You know, I think what’s sorely missing is a US-centric instance. There’s one for Midwest US but not the whole country. Which is weird when so many things are country specific, and looots of countries have their own instances.
I would hope that the college comm is for all colleges and not just the US ones, but I rather doubt that’s the case.

What stuff are you missing on Lemmy that’s on Reddit? I see gaps are constant being filled.

That will come.
There’s an entire instance for German speakers feddit.de, I believe I’ve seen memes there.
As for college, I’d imagine such subs have the most sense on country-specific instances too.
