In recent days I have seen these two arguments repeated quite commonly. From reddits side it was all about how “noones using Lemmy anyway”

While from Lemmy it was “how numbers have been exploding”

My question is, why do numbers of users matter so much to anyone really? Isnt activity what matters more?

On two questions here I gotten just as much engagement if not more than anything I did on reddit combined

    If by “on reddit’s side” it’s because they’re all nihilists from the previous attempt at migration and assume that Lemmy now is no different from how it was in 2019, especially after Ruqqus and god knows how many other “alternatives” failed miserably.
