      I’m glad you could make it! I don’t really care personally whether 100 people or 100 million people are using Reddit. It’s dead and gone to me now.

      And we’re a drop in the bucket compared to the Reddit userbase. A rounding error. Some impact we made.

        So “wahhh it has to be everyone, immediately, at all once, 100% replacement!”

        Dude, new product is in the market and going on fine.

        I’m not quite sure that’s true. Maybe in raw numbers, but we’re a living, breathing base of contributing users helping to keep a whole platform and community alive. It doesn’t matter if the Federation isn’t purely made up of former Reddit users as we’ve assimilated. Every contribution we make on this platform is one more that the last one doesn’t get. Votes, posts, comments, it’s all here and not there. I would very much like us to get to the size where the sports subs are active during game threads, but we’re still having an impact.

          I can live without the sports subs. In fact Lemmy feels a lot like how Reddit felt around 2010. I wouldn’t mind keeping it small like this.

        Depends who you ask. Reddit likely didn’t notice any difference, but I’d say the difference on Lemmy is quite drastic.
