If Reddit won, why are we here?

No surprise here, just like Bernie Sanders, Mueller, and everything else, le reddit blindly overestimated what was going to happen. I'm willing to bet less than 10% of reddit even knows there were other apps, they just want cat pics and reposted tiktoks.

I agree that reddit won but it was a, pyrrhic victory the content quality has massively gone down. I still have a secondary account there but I only use it to spread the word about lemmy. Haven't used it in weeks because I don't want to attract too much attention and get suspended.

Lemmy won imo

No they did not win. People just expect people to move out from an historic platform overnight. This just doesn't happen like that. Like Twitter, they'll be small events that will make users want to find alternatives and migrate here.

That crisis made Lemmy way more populated, just for that we won in a way
