    My immediate meat-space circles are aware of it and have stopped asking me WTH is wrong with my meme links in the group chats.

    I do not believe anyone else has an account.

      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.

    Probably a couple people but it has never actually come up in conversation. I’ll ask next time I see them.

    Yes I have been a Lemmy advocate since I joined, but I have only ever gotten one person to use Lemmy. I told one of my daughters friends mom about Lemmy. She does not allow her daughter to use social media. Except for Lemmy.

    So that is it. My one conversion. I have kind of given up on trying to convert people. I still love Lemmy and the Fediverse, but the year of Lemmy mainstream has yet to come.

    Yes. I shared a Star Trek meme with a coworker and they asked me where I got it. I told them about Lemmy and Tenforward and another coworker chimed in with “where every Vulcan knows your name”

    It took 10 years to meet anyone that used Reddit. I assume it’s gonna take another 10 to meet anyone on this platform.

      about ten years ago, while playing in a bar locals team tournament. some people from the foosball scene but mostly regulars from the bar . this one guy who was pretty good first told me about Reddit. but like

      oh I’m reddit famous, yay my posts get to the front page all the time i didn’t like the dude so I’ve always been really private about my relationship with any platform

      I’ll brag about making top 20 counterstrike players one week in the 1990s through wql and gamespy
