Yes, but the top mention of Digg has 100 upvotes, while the top mention of Lemmy has only 25.
Eh, new digg is just more novel, and doesn't actually exist yet, so redditors who want to use it are still there. People who want to use lemmy, are already here
Why are we pretending either of those totals is noteworthy?
You're comparing two handfuls of change, in a system that deals with millions on the daily.
The totals may be a drop in the bucket compared to Reddit as a whole, but I think the ratios as an indicator of general opinion is noteworthy, especially on a sub like r/RedditAlternatives.
