I fully migrated but the vast majority of users won’t. In fact, a significant portion of users that try Lemmy will likely go back to Reddit.

This is what happened with the Twitter -> Mastodon migration: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2023/06/op-ed-why-the-great-twittermigration-didnt-quite-pan-out/

As long as a few of the niche communities that I care about can hit a critical mass on a lemmy instance somewhere, then I’m happy. Like, photography or endurance sports. I haven’t seen much of those yet, but hopefully we get there soon! Even just a thousand actually-active members is enough!

Unfortunately I’ll probably still use Reddit for their historical data for a while, but not logged in or posting anymore on principal.

We’ll see!
