The migration of large communities from Reddit to Lemmy is like a world-renowned band performing an acoustic set in a library for 50 people.
The fanbase is still large, but the Lemmy community hasn't quite caught up yet, and now there is a transitional period where the audience is smaller.

That is good since we are all beta testing the site and developing tools to manage everything before the real migration occurs.
Real migration? Who would be migrating? The 90% we left behind?
No, thank you.
The more the merrier.
You can move to smaller universes if that's what you see fit.
No, in this case, the more is not the merrier. Otherwise you end up with the reddit shitshow.
You can choose to be on smaller instances that only federate with smaller instances.
Having more people gives us more options.
Fair enough.
Eventually more will come.
Can we gate keep the riffraff out? For once?
The more the merrier. I want the doctors from askdocs and the historians and the eli5 people and the lawyers from legaladvice etc etc to be here too. Currently it’s mainly us tech nerds who understand how the fediverse works. Which is nice at times but having a wide range of nerds from many fields would be great
Ah, when you put it this way, it makes sense.
I just don't wante the usual pokemon or sponge bob memes flooding the fediverse.
