The migration of large communities from Reddit to Lemmy is like a world-renowned band performing an acoustic set in a library for 50 people. (lemmy.world)

The fanbase is still large, but the Lemmy community hasn't quite caught up yet, and now there is a transitional period where the audience is smaller.

Real migration? Who would be migrating? The 90% we left behind?

No, thank you.

The more the merrier.

You can move to smaller universes if that's what you see fit.

No, in this case, the more is not the merrier. Otherwise you end up with the reddit shitshow.

You can choose to be on smaller instances that only federate with smaller instances.

Having more people gives us more options.
