    Yeah. Lemmy got a big injection of users from reddit. However, the users that came over are the folks who are active commenters. If you think about it, people who comment a lot are using platforms like this for a very different reason than the average user who just wants a feed of links to scroll through. They are very, very different from users that use them to be a shithead troll. They’re also critical enough and savvy enough to find a new place when things went to shit on Reddit as well. We got a lot of high-quality users is what I’m trying to say. At least that’s my opinion/what I’ve observed
