I am not sure I believe that, it might be that bots can be active again now that the subreddits are reopened, but I know that I am not back. And I won't be back, and I think a lot of people are staying away as well. That the traffic is now normal seems a bit sketchy.
I'm afraid that's just bubble bias. Most people just don't care or haven't found a viable alternative yet. These +43k active users on Lemmy are huge for Lemmy, but not even a scratch for the other site.
After the initial exodus at the start of this month, you could see more and more comments demanding returning to business as usual.
[I’m afraid that’s just bubble bias.] Huh, hadn't heard of that one before. But yeah 43.000 is not a lot next to 52.000.000. I am still staying here tho
If Reddit experience a drop a 5% of its user base I doubt they would immediately notice. And even if they did sites like this (pcmag) would not consider that a major drop and so wouldn't even report it as such.
But we all know that 5% of the users produce 90% to the content.
It's interesting to see how the traffic is after 1st of July. I hate to speculate but I wouldn't be surprised when an article will comes out, stating traffic has not changed after 1st of July.
NGL, I'm only there for the porn now
Yeah, didn't find any equivalent on lemmy so far...
There are NSFW instances, saw them in the join Lemmy list.
