Mine is more like,
Because even if Lemmy didn't get huge I still want to watch Reddit die.
Hey, at least the attention whoring subs are getting a lot of frontpage time XD
Like the "amiugly" and all its variants, which I didn't even know existed until after the fiasco pushed them to get on the r/all frontpage.
The figure is probably closer to 40% than 90%, subredditstats seems to be affected by the api changes too. However 40% at the low end of the range is still phenomenally bad. And every subreddit is definitely seeing a constantly declining amount of activity now.
It was pretty obvious from looking at /r/all that upvotes and comments are way down. Posts from somewhat obscure subreddits are making it to the front page, something you never saw before. People may be reading, but they're not participating as much as before.
Yup. Still, having someone to actually measure it is nice.
And based on the Reddark site, obscure subreddits were likely affected even harder, as plenty of them are still restricted or private (since Reddit doesn't care about those).
YouTube is strong because it has an evergreen library. Reddit relies on the present. That makes it much easier to change platform.
