Do you think lemmy would be as popular as reddit?
Hi, do you think lemmy would be as popular as Reddit ? I mean, many subreddits have much more posts compared to communities on lemmy… sometimes I scroll through Reddit sub top of month and see no end. At lemmy mostly I see 10 posts monthly… I do like concept of moving to lemmy, but it might make no sense if people’s are no active here and tbh I see the trend of disappearing activity
If a billionaire (or a very big bunch of millionaires) out of the goodness of their heart (yeah, not gonna happen) threw a massive amount of money into advertising for a open source product they dont own, Lemmy could be as or more popular. Even if it has fewer features. Even if its uglier. Even if its more complicated.
I can’t count the many times I’ve seen the worser product has won out because it had big corpo ad budget. Turned me a bit cynical.
Elon Musk sponsoring Lemmy devs with full time money and many more goals would make 2024 even more of a clown year than 2023.
It would make almost everyone leave and Musk sit there with another empty social network.
