I think that people will still stick with Reddit just like there are a lot of people still using Twitter: it feels like their home online.
Here’s a funny thing though, I’ve seen so many posts on Lemmy by people saying they were lurkers on Reddit but they do (intend to) post here.
That can’t be a coincidence 😊I am one of those former lurkers/occasional posters and I’m kinda active here.
(As an aside: I do wonder if the lack of overload due to constant ads can be attributed to that)
I really don’t miss Reddit much now, because the communities on Lemmy are wonderful, and they can only grow more.
This is actually sad as it reminds me of why people stay in countries with violent authoritative regimes.
I know, it's different, but there's also lot of parallels.
