Do we at this point have any substantial data on just how many users Reddit actually lost due to this?

Any resources would be greatly appreciated.

As a sidenote, I’ll add that they certainly lost my account the second I couldn’t use RiF anymore.

    Generally I agree, but one of the things that was actually pretty cool about reddit were the smaller niche subs.
    Some of them though were just too niche and small and thus pretty dead even with Reddits huge userbase.

    And while I am pretty optimistic in general, I am a bit afraid that it will be harder to find active communities for niche interests if Lemmys userbase were to stay the current size.

    But hey let’s stay positive and active here and spread the word and we can grow into the perfect size, which doesn’t necessarily need to be reddit-behemoth size.
