Even if only 2% succeed, isn't it worth discussing?

Lemmy as a platform probably isn't even 1% of Reddit's userbase, yet here we are

I'm not saying that the 2% who succeed don't matter, I'm just saying that the 98% matter just as much.

Also, if you want people to lose weight, it's wild to ignore the fact that while 5% manage to keep weight off, 60% gain weight.

Everybody knows losing weight is a very difficult task, those numbers make sense
