Is there any evidence that Reddit has suffered at all from the exodus to Lemmy?
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...

I hope so, but I don't care. The same with the bird site. I chose to delete my barely-used bird account when that idiot bought it, and to explore mastadon and lemmy when I could no longer use Apollo to view reddit. Two or 3 times I've popped over to reddit to see what's going on, and check on any other subreddits that have moved to lemmy, and using the official reddit browser or app just reinforces why I left. It's shit, and getting shittier.
Basically I like the mantra "not my circus, not my monkeys."
This has been my experience. I was still using Reddit on my computer and lemmy on my phone until last week. I'm at the point on my computer now that I was at with my phone four weeks ago where it's pretty much split between them. I really need to figure out a search engine that captures lemmys since I still have to end most my searches with "reddit" to get useful answers.
Edit: I know I can use "site:lemmy.world" but that only searches the one instance
I had finally joined Twitter to see if there was anymore political people to find out about. Something like a week later Musk bought it and I deleted it.
I'm not even this huge like omg I hate musk. I don't think I even have musk related comments. I just don't trust big loud billionaires. Especially ones that made big deals about being too broke to help out with internt for Ukraine much longer while flying to moons and buying soapboxes and just generally being shitty
