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.
I fully agree, this feels like a breath of fresh air! I can still see myself on Reddit for a while but we’ll see what happens in a couple of days as I get more used to lemmy. Some niche subreddit alternatives are understandably still quite inactive but hopefully they’ll get more users in the near future!
