As discussed elsewhere, that might not be such a bad thing. Ramping up slowly will work much better than all of Reddit suddenly showing up at lemmy.ml and expecting it to be a fully polished* Reddit.
Agreed. This will take awhile, but once it gets going I think it'll slowly take over.
I remember the exodus to mastodon being a bit of a shitshow with nobody knowing how it worked, the whole network slowing to a crawl, and then a lot of them leaving a couple weeks later. It did boost the amount of users, just in a bad way.
Some of us stuck around. I'd say Mastodon is good enough and big enough. Lemmy is definitely more rough around the edges. If some of the spurned app developers end up in the Fediverse somewhere, it should help a great deal.
Thing with that though, is there was a series of events over several months that kept pushing people to mastodon. I canβt see Reddit progressively fucking up harder the way Musk did.
Wonder if the last statement will age like wine or milk. I guess, time will tell.
The Digg to Reddit migration was also a trickle at first. Reddit hasn't had their "Digg 4.0" moment yet.
No, that comes up on July 1st. But they did have their Fark "You'll get over it" moment. That will accelerate the migration.
