First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

Yeah. I think it's easy to forget how small a percentage of people it is that actually comment and post. Most "active users" are just voters.

I think it'll go down, but very slowly. Which is possibly for the best anyways. Though many of the users will just divert to other corporate platforms that will inevitably do equally shitty things.

Exactly, like 80% of people barley make a comment once in awhile, not to speak about posts.

Either real users will be replaced by repost bots or reddit wilk run out of content if the 20% posters go away.

The front page is all reposts, memes, and AskReddit already anyway.
