Not surprising. People use what they know, and people use what other people use. I'm sticking around on Lemmy, though.

Expected. They haven't added lots of essential features yet so it doesn't even have anywhere near feature parity with Twitter, making it more pleasant and useful for people to Twitter.

It was alright I guess the first week, but really the big part that interested me was the Fediverse, and I really do hope people jump off Threads to come use other platforms.

Some might not and I wish Meta goes by there work and does Fediverise to allow those users to use the wider Fediverse

Everyone's lurking now.

Do they count account creation as engagement? I suppose it was only engagement for people there

not too surprised. this happens with platforms like there where there's a surge of initial interest and then it dies down to the people that will actually use it. it'll either stagnate and die like most google social products, or it'll start to grow and users will generate content that others want to see.

Of course everything will “calm down” in due time, some after then others.

Once the FOMO of this wears off I still think Twitter will reign supreme (not that I care for either just saying)

Both can co exists it’s not always about who has the most users or engagement crap that gets thrown around now a days.
