Considering how quickly lemmy grew. I don't think it's fair to say people never leave. Clearly a lot of people did. Just not enough unfortunately.
Lemmy currently has 0.2% the active usercount of reddit. While I too share your optimism, realistically, no real change has yet occurred. But, hopefully this is enough to spark things off. It's already leading to far, far greater activity in the lemmy app dev space.
I wonder what the percentage was bot accounts.
Many.
I don't particularly want most Reddit users here. A large portion of people like low effort, manufactured, spammy crap. (Cf Facebook). I came here from Reddit because I liked Reddit most around 2004-2006.
That’s fine by me. Let the ignorant masses stay on Reddit and enjoy their memes and reposts
