I imagine it'll take time to see the full migration. Many users might wait before making an account or even just not be sure which instance they want their account on right away.

I personally took a few days to decide whether I would move or just stop using Reddit like platforms. And after that it took a day or so to decide on my instance and then start actually using a new platform.

I completely agree. I was actually surprised at first about how much I cared about Reddit dying but then I thought about how much time I had spent on it and how different my life was before.

I'm obviously looking forward to kbin/fediverse growing (and genuinely believe it can provide some solutions to the issues we ran into with Reddit) but right now I think I'm still gonna need to see Reddit burn down for their decisions and constant ignoring of their long term userbase.

I just wish it wasn't always the first few results when you look up information on certain topics. Especially for really niche issues since it's often the only place with answers right now. That's basically that only time I visit reddit at this point.
