I'd be willing to bet that Lemmy's traffic also dropped off after the initial wave of Reddit users checking it out died down. This is normal. A drop of 20% would be more than a good outcome, given how many Instagram users never even had Twitter to begin with and would have just been idly checking in on the hype.
I know people want Threads to fail, and I won't pretend to have any huge love for Meta, but I'd really like to see discussions here be at least loosely based in reality rather than devolving into mindless screeching.
