Was there even a mass exodus? I largely avoid Reddit now, but I do kind of doubt that they've been hurt in any meaningful way by all the protests and people leaving...

Mass migration or not, I'm happier to be here with all of you.

I have to admit, when I came here I was hoping this would be a mass migration, but these days I think Lemmy is already great even without the bulk of Reddit's user base joining. Easier to participate in conversions, less trolling, less aggression, fewer bots...

Not saying I don't want Lemmy to grow more, but it's a fantastic place already.

yeah people here are generally nicer. I do wish there more more active niche communities though

less trolling, less agression

less popcorn </3

But it's manageable.

I agree. And if I’m being honest, I don’t want 100 million people from reddit suddenly appearing here. Same for Mastodon from Twitter. That would be awful.

Please make them stay where they are.
