    Don’t worry, the enshittification of both is proceeding well.

    Replacements are inevitable in time. This one is growing.

      It is, though the numbers are depressing.

      A site like Reddit grows in its daily active users more than 15x (!!!) entire MAU base of Lemmy. “Reddit migrations” are barely a margin of error for them.

      This is excluding, liberal, assumption of bot counts.

          Reddit didn’t grow in it’s early days like it does today. To use an analogy for what you’re saying: think of a snowball rolling down a mountain and turning into an avalanche. It’s easy to forget that the snowball started it.

        We don’t really have a choice, unfortunately.

        This platform has the downside of day 1 bots, unlike reddit of yore.
