Does everybody thinks that this migration is gonna change peoples mind about not using Reddit anymore ? Here's hoping.

While the absolute numbers of users that make the switch will probably be small for the foreseeable future, I still think they will make an impact. On Reddit, more than 90% of users never contribute anything. Those will stay there and keep making up the big numbers. But the users that migrate to the fediverse were the ones that posted, commented, moderated and voted on Reddit. If even a small percentage of those leave, it will have a fast greater impact on Reddit than the mere user numbers suggest.

Yeah, I kinda feel lemmy would be more interesting tbh, the ppl who are attracted are more active like you said. I usually did contribute a lot but thinking about doing more on lemme to keep it a float.
