Yeah people say stuff like that all the time. If they were really going to leave they'd have done it already
I heard that less than 10% of redditors use 3rd party apps. After tomorrow, I doubt that the whole 10% moves here. Maybe 5% if we are lucky (on unlucky if you are an instance owner).
What really matters is how well the mods can manage the site without their 3rd party tools. Without them, moderation will suffer.
5% of Reddit is colossal compared to Lemmy's current numbers. I think even 0.1% would be very noticeable.
I might be in the minority, but I actually like Lemmy where it is now. Sorting by new, there's usually more new stuff than I can read anyway as-is.
The content on r/all was already dropping in quality during june. I was noticing I was getting into weird niche subreddit way earlier than usual, so hopefully that means all the post makers are starting to jump ship
Same for me. I was getting a lot of 'suggested' communities in my feed
