Not yet, but it seems to be growing.
I don’t even know anyone that uses Reddit 🫠
I know one guy, but I know him from a IRC (now Matric) channel, but we are offline friends too and visited each other often.
But even for reddit I only know a person in real life that uses it. I tried to convert him, he said “there are too many Linux apologists” 🤷🏻♂️
See? Tankies aren’t a problem at all. What’re yall worried about?
That would imply that they know it even exists
My spouse. But that’s it.
Let me stop you before you suggest a narwhal bacons at midnight equivalent for lemmy
Nah. My brother, wife, my two best friends and one co-worker are the only ones who even know it exists, and that’s because they know I use it as an alternative to reddit since the API fiasco. It’s honestly pretty obscure, but I like it that way. I’d love to see larger niche communities, especially since r/stalker was one of the only places I could actively talk about my favorite game series, but Lemmy has been a far better experience overall.
I didn’t know a single redditor either, some ppl who had seen my name (my dumbass doxed my full unique name as my username when I was a kid and I didnt change it forever) irl had mentioned it to me, but they didn’t use it past google, they weren’t posting, commenting, or signing up
People don’t like redditors in general, its an insult, I dont think lemmy has the same vibe but its also not popular
No
Same. Everyone that i know of that once used Reddit is still over there.
If, for whatever reason, Reddit allows third party apps to be usable again over there like before the fallout then i might go back. But until then i am here.
I don’t really miss reddit itself, just the breadth of content that was there
I agree. The Blender community here seems very small in comparison :'(
Of course I know him, it’s me!.jpg
“This is the man you are looking for.”Don’t look into the O, or you’ll get poked.
I’ve only actively converted one person so far, but there is one other person whom I suspect of using lemmy but have not confirmed.
Probably a couple people but it has never actually come up in conversation. I’ll ask next time I see them.
I don’t know anyone besides myself that even uses social media IRL.
…what? Nobody you know IRL uses Facebook, Linkedin, Insragram, Bluesky, Twitter, or That Google Thing?
How is that possible? I don’t think I could find anyone here in Finland who could say what you’re saying. Need more data about this case of yours!
Bold of you to assume that I know anybody in real life.
