How many users here do you think are going to get bored and end up back on Reddit as soon as the blackout ends?

I don’t mean to be pessimistic, bit since most subreddits are only going dark for a couple days, the site will basically be back to normal soon. I wonder how many users here are only here because of temporary outrage and not because they actually prefer Lemmy. I’m curious about people’s outlook on this situation.

Edit: Wow this blew up!

Edit 2: Thanks for the gold kind stranger!

Edit 3: RIP my inbox! I can’t believe this made /r/all!

Edit 4: We did it Reddit! Lemmy!

The community here is much better IMHO

Much less toxic (I’m not talking about lemmygrad)

What’s wrong with lemmygrad? I haven’t been there yet so I don’t know.

It’s like r/The_Donald but on the opposite end of the political spectrum

I describe it better as stethoscope theory.
