    Mainly for niche communities that haven’t gained traction here yet, and for my city’s subreddit, which does have a community here but it’s completely inactive so far.

    I created like 3 communities and I’ve got around 20 subscribers on each, but no one is posting so I’ve been using reddit here and there to cross post content from the original subs to kinda just have something there as an example.

    There are probably specific communities that I’d miss, but the real answer is VOLUME. There’s still more content there.

    There’s a few niche communities there that don’t exist on Lemmy and likely won’t for a while. Plus, I still dip into AskReddit because it’s a hard habit to break!

    Just a couple of health-related subs that haven’t fully migrated. I don’t particularly want to use Reddit, but I get more value from lore passed down woman-to-woman than I do from doctors who want to attribute everything to hysteria anxiety and depression.

    I’ve switched to Lemmy for random browsing of memes, pop culture, and tech news.

    I’m hoping Lemmy will soon be large enough that major world news events will pop up there, too.

    I still go to Reddit for just a couple of niche communities. Lemmy isn’t large enough for there to be active communities about every TV show and every hobby, yet. Looking forward to when we hit that size.

    Also: no rush. We’re early adopters. Lemmy has gotten a LOT better in the last month, so I’m glad that everyone didn’t rush to join it right away. I’d rather that when small communities consider migrating, they can do so and have a great experience.

    I promised a couple subs I mod to stay on until they find replacement mods. After browsing lemmy, the interface is downright aggravating, though.

    My work subreddit, as we are going through industrial action and it’s the main communication hub. So it’s useful to keep updated.

    Nothing. I keep the BaconReader app so that when I click on it and nothing loads, I know there is nothing for me there.

      I do exactly the same thing! I think its a good strategy. I’ve acidentally opened baconreader a handful of times just from muscle memory and its only been a couple of days.

    I’ll go there when I want to read episode discussions after watching an episode of a show. Unfortunately all that content still lives there and there’s no substitute on Lemmy.

    r/padres r/baseball and r/fantasyfootball

    If I could get even a fraction of the discussion those subs have here I would have no reason to go back

      Fellow Compadre! 🤙🏽

      Literally same along with /r/NBA

      Basically, sports subreddits are keeping me on Reddit. I did try to get something going over on /c/padres but as you said, discussion isn’t quite there 😮‍💨

      Hopefully more of us make our way over to Lemmy!
