Yep. SPD lost way more to Union and AfD, though, and the Greens got out of this whole thing relatively unscathed, they have a quite stable basis.

Fun fact: Die Linke gained more voters from CDU and FDP than they lost to the AfD.

Protest voters be protest voting. Unless what they want is actually achieved they'll start hopping from party to party, usually in the direction of "this will be the greater middle finger to the establishment". It's people who think that kicking their car when it doesn't start will fix it.
