Lemmy.world active users is tapering off while other servers are gaining serious traction.
Seems to me the fear of overloading one instance over another will not happen after all.
But I do hope the Threadiverse can hit 500,000 consistent active users by the end of summer.
Give me that hopium guys! 💉

This instance took a "wait and see" stance to Meta. It lost a lot of subreddit modteams when it did, who are now pushing their userbases to the comms they've made in other lemmys by putting up links and sticky posts in their old subreddits.
I have several subreddits where our teams argued internally about it, we were mostly in support of coming here until the instance was soft on Meta.
Ironic that "subreddit modteams" are anti meta when they've been pro reddit for the last decade.
They're anti meta because they were pro reddit for a decade
All for profit corporations are the same, I don't understand this flag waving mentality
People thought they had a mutually beneficial relationship with reddit (and they did): they provided content and moderation, reddit provided a platform, administration, etc.
Reddit has never been perfect but pretending it was as bad as Zuck’s creations is being dishonest. Sure, no corporation has your needs as their top priority. However, I remember a time when reddit used to do things like talk about warrant canaries and other privacy minded things. Facebook has always been a bit… questionable. And then it got worse.
Exactly, they've become disenchanted with mainstream corporate bullshit
They're just not, though. Meta and Reddit are not the same. Reddit and my employer, where we make thing that people choose to buy, are not the same.
People can have preferences on different platforms and products, and they can have different amounts of confidence in different companies on how capable and trustworthy they are.
I mean, not my subs since I'm a communist. Being on the platform doesn't mean liking it. You have to be where people are though if you want to do anything to help spread your ideology or fight libs. It's a matter of treating reddit as a theatre of operations for us, much like our presence on twitter remains so. But yeah you're right about the majority of moderators.
