I have 3 reasons I still visit… But I am cutting back.
My local subreddit is still way more active than the equivalent here in the fediverse (but I do get to interact with some familiar usernames in the local Lemmy community)
It’s still a decent news aggregator, IMHO, ahead of Lemmy for keeping up with what’s going on in the world at a high level
NSFW content is still lagging behind on Lemmy, as well … I’m using a revanced app and I’m a mod of my own private sub so it still works but I fully expect this to be killed in the near future… In fact, I fully expect that by the time a reddit IPO happens they will have completely killed all the NSFW subreddits (even on the official app and desktop browser)
The site is definitely in a death spiral but, as of today, I still find it useful for certain things.
Fuck them though… They won’t get a dime in ad dollars from me and the demise can’t come soon enough at this point.

That #1 is close to my own reason - a few small communities I’m part of, with very little fediverse activity.
Always using an adblocker of course, having one is basic internet safety, and it reducing reddit’s profits is a nice bonus.
