Looks like a shitload of people accessing it several times a day, some watching it like hawks, and an entire genre of Reddit refugees who've taken to advertising it on a daily basis.
:NOWAY: Not the 400 people advertising Lemmy vs the at least 30 million Bots and the few million Reddit users.
Look at this and tell me we are a statistic.
This. It's honestly hilarious people keep parroting that "that's still engagement" BS like we're a force to be reckoned with compared to reddit.
It's like getting $10 from Musk and thinking its6gonna hurt him in a significant way. Lmao.
I mean, poking in and scrolling your old favorite sub for 10 minutes 3 times a day is still substantially less traffic then constantly bumming around on r/all all day
Besides, with the sheer number of reddit users not even including the tens of thousands of bots, the site traffic generated by Lemmy users is probably so small it makes no difference at all
