    I don’t have numbers but I think reddit is much bigger than digg ever was. I agree though that Lemmy/Kbin servers need their own identity beyond just grumbling about reddit. That’s why I don’t upvote this kind of post. It’s better to just move on and create new communities here.

      I agree, It reminds me a lot of what Mastodon instances I’ve seen were like shortly after Elon Musk bought Twitter with that being the main thing hooking me into the fediverse despite the fact that I’ve never used Twitter. Thankfully those communities did develop and mature over time although it took a while for people to move towards unique types of posts and conversations. I believe the same can apply here with Beehaw and Lemmy although we need to be the ones to help foster the change we want to see.
