      I haven’t used Reddit in years, but I moved here because my brother, a regular Redditor, informed me of this neat alternative and I felt like checking it out. Hopefully many are doing the same. Otherwise I lurk in old-school forums. I prefer the Reddit model though, so I quite like this Fediverse.

          New communities often do and you gain all those benefits from being smaller where the general atmosphere is a bit friendlier and more helpful as people are invested and want to make it happen. :) That’s honestly part of why I jumped ship to here now. At 100K users we’re starting to reach critical mass here where of all these users, it trickles down a few dozens at least into more or less niche Lemmy communities.
