Probably monthly active uses would be the best gauge. It's somewhat over 50k for Lemmy compared to around a half billion for reddit. That would be .01% or one ten thousandth. So even if all those were the result of people leaving Reddit, a graph on paper would not have high enough resolution to register a difference.
In any case it only matters that Lemmy has a big enough user base to make it worthwhile. I'd be more concerned about it getting too big than being too small.
Think about the quality of user reddit lost as well.
