Shall we embrace cross posting?...

I think ignoring is the wrong way to go for sure. Personally I un-installed my app for Lemmy but I might reinstall it.

The reason I might reinstall it is just to help improve Lemmy. For example, most of my news for League of Legends came from the subreddit and the Lemmy community I found is basically dead. So, if I want to help improve Lemmy I could look at reddit for the news and then repost it (linking the original source, not reddit).

Also, think about all the subreddits that make content from Twitter and Tumblr, it's possible some people will want to be on Reddit and Lemmy for the same reason.

I've been waiting for someone to make a Curatedtumblr community. I think all the users actually left for Tumblr.

There does seem to be one if you search across all Lemmy communities, but it is dead and very tiny.

Some of the users might also have retreated to the discord server, since /r/CuratedTumblr had an official one, while others just went for tumblr directly.

Well tumblr are supposed to come to the fediverse at some point. And they reportedly were receiving people from the Twitter migration.

I rolled up a Tumblr account because I was thinking the same thing, but it really doesn't fill the social media niche I want like Reddit.

Lemmy is doing a much better job of that, although I'm curious to see what happens to the user base as time goes on.
