Another way of looking at it: Lemmy is retaining the engagement of the vast majority of new users who have joined recently.
Yeah I agree. I think it's pretty amazing that so many people are continuing to use Lemmy after the initial migration. I'd have been more surprised if there was no drop off, as you're obviously going to get some people who'd try it and it's not for them.
At least a short time after… we still need to do more to build out more niche communities. It seems we have the big topics covered like news, politics, and memes, but what was great about Reddit was the ability to find a place to discuss and research niche stuff.
