Not terribly surprised, new platform that’s still teething. I’ve said it before but we will go through multiple growth and contraction waves if we all care to stick around long enough.
Personally I’m liking the smaller community so far. Definitely could use some growth, but more people comes with a lot of problems reddit has.
Somewhat expected, probably will be multiple waves of people joining with small declines in the months immediately after. Some of those less engaged individuals will come back too, and some of each wave will stay. I stayed from this last wave of reddit users. I’ve been using three lemmy accounts and my Mastodon since the incident. I intend to keep doing it, it’s been a lot fun.
I’d rather keep my delicious bourbon and let them clone me as many livers as I need.
