Actually, the discretisation will probably be like:

70% just download the official Reddit app and don’t mind

20% leave the site and don’t look for alternatives

10% look for alternatives

And half of them choose Lemmy

So we might get like 5% of Reddit’s entire 3rd party userbase across all of Lemmy. Which sounds tiny but is actually frighteningly large.

I think your 70% is high.

People chose 3rd party apps. Whether that's because they've been there longer than Reddit having their own app (like I was), not liking Reddit's app, or something else they still opted to use it via something unofficial.

Reddit's app is garbage and invasive. I've got duck duck go's privacy thing and tried Reddit's app a few months back with it. It had more blocked requests than anything else on my phone. On top of that it was the worst experience I had with any app to access Reddit.

I don't know how much I think your 70% is high, but I bet it is. On top of that I think some percent that do use it via official app will jump off in the coming weeks.

All that said I could also see the other numbers adjusting too, so the amount of new users next week could still be in the 5% neighborhood.
