All the actual left wing Redditors came here. The only thing left are the conservatives who don't hide being conservatives, and the nazis pretending to be leftists to troll.
Lemmy has 0.005% (no, this is not a typo) of the active users. For every million Reddit users, there are 50 Lemmy users. To try and put this in perspective, if reddit was the entirely of the United States, Lemmy would be a town of ~17,000 people. Or about 1/10th of a square mile of Manhattan during the day.
Let's not make up wild, inflated, statements like this . We aren't even large enough to make up a single medium sized reddit community. Nevermind actually affect change on Reddit by way of user migration.
Just stating the facts. In threads where delusioned Lemmy users act like they are having a big impact on Reddit.
We should focus on our community, how to grow it organically, how do we avoid bot hell? How do we foster something better? Instead of inflating egos and trying to stick it back at reddit, when we are but a blip.
"All" is stretching it, but I think TikTok and the fediverse have definitely attracted significant portions of the progressive left.
What remains on reddit is mostly the liberal left and a few progressives in niche subs.
But if you go to a sub such as r/worldnews, it's clear that there are no actual progressives commenting on that sub. They either got banned or they left.
