    They don’t seem to realize Reddit isn’t that special. It’s a forum… Digg and Slashdot thought they were special too Myspace before that…

    They’re just where most people are at the moment. That can and likely will change. Whether it’s Lemmy or something else entirely.

      Yeah it’s not like Facebook where I need all my friends to move. I just need a few thousand people to move to Lemmy and I’ll never need Reddit again.

        And since Lemmy is already at, iirc, the 200,000 mark, and is only part of the greater fediverse… I can’t speak for anyone else, but I don’t feel lonely here.

          Same. Honestly I’m getting more responses and conversations than I do in Reddit. And they’re way more positive
