Similar to Mastodon's spikes last year, it seems. Anyways, there is data to think about. Source

I will admit, I was hard into Lemmy at first, but then gradually slipped back into the Reddit habit. This is my first visit to the site in a few weeks.

I could see myself doing the same, but I only browse mobile. Without a decent app, it's just not happening.

However, Lemmy now feels like the super early days of Reddit and I don't want to give that up.

Just real conversations, normal comments, none of the repeated Reddit jokes in every thread, and minimal right wing trolling

A lot of what I enjoyed about reddit was news discussion. On Lemmy, about 80-90% of those threads just get over run with trolls.
