I’ve seen many comments and posts regarding the API fiasco on Reddit, with the claim that there will be a huge influx of users when that happens. I’m all for it, but I find it hard to believe that the average or even above average user will make the effort to switch.
Maybe, but being here and actively participating in the community are two different things. I’ve had an account here for a few days and even though I browse it daily I don’t really comment or vote much cause I still have RIF. Once that’s gone so am I so I’ll just focus on Lemmy. It could still make a significant difference.
