I guess it’s self explanatory but I keep seeing all this stuff about how everyone is moving from Reddit to lemmy and I’m wondering if anyone knows if that’s really what’s happening. If you have numbers that’s even better.

Thanks!

    Maybe it’s because I was on RIF that I didn’t make these icon connections

    That said it’s going to be like 10000 active users vs reddits millions so people will bump into each other more often.

    Also man how disheartening was it when you had a good response to a good AskReddit but you were reply number 75,000 and you knew no one would ever see it?

      And yes I think a lot of the reddit refugees might be people were tired of all different kinds of things on reddit. It’s too big and then oddly not busy enough? If you comment on a big thread odds are no one will even read it, but if you post in a small sub it may be days before anyone responds.

        Not me. I think even on Lemmy, my neurodivergent brain will have forgotten your name by the time I’m done writing this comment. Farewell, @mayo@lemmy.world: every one of the five seconds I knew you was a goddamn honor.
