Would be interesting to see engagement metrics as well.
Yeah, even just 3% could be very meaningful because it could be a lot of content creators who hopped ship.
And judging by how much content we have here on Lemmy - yeah, I’m thinking Reddit lost a bunch of valuable users and will only get worse with time.
That’s the key point. More than 90% of their users never post, comment or even vote.
Similarly, what remains are increasingly concentrated bots.

Look at r/subredditsimulator… Reddit admins were experimenting with AI content and comment generation, and had been for a while.
You’re right - that’s the important part!
