Maybe the longtime users, but anyone who's joined in the last month has been waiting for this mass migration to liven up the place. I think we'd all trade some temporary slowness for a bulk of new users, I saw a post earlier saying lemmy.world has grown 40% in the first 12 hours after reddit killed third-party apps.

Hell, I was on kbin.social when the blackout started, and that site went pretty much unusable.
