I mean have they seen how good Ice Cubes and Mlem look? How can they choose the default Twitter and Reddit apps over those masterpieces.

In a way, it's a good sign. The threadiverse is tight-knit and comprehensive enough to become people's primary social site. I've never seen any other reddit alternative get to this point.
Discuit still has less than 200 weekly commenters: https://discuit.net/DiscuitMeta/post/HCHvcmBc
Lemmy has 42000 monthly active users
That explains why I recognize people all the time. We’re basically a small city
What is the standard for counting the active user? As a lurker, I don't think I would be counted.
Voting, commenting or posting. With this comment, you're active.
Dang, those numbers are moving though. Not bad.
It became my primary. Had never heard/understood federated-internet anything before lemmy. And it's been a really good time here
Reddit is now just a Quora for me, when I'm using a search engine. I don't scroll Instagram, but just look at what (3) people send me. Facebook is for rare use-cases, so I haven't deleted my account. YouTube I watch, rarely scroll, and don't interact. And I think that's about it currently
Lemmy has it's own issues/flavor for sure... but I dig it. I learned my first forum basics from Something Awful, and there's a certain vibe here that reminds me of that. The fediverse (threadiverse? I haven't heard that term) feels like an internet community center or something
threadiverse is for threaded apps like lemmy and kbin, as in practice they're mainly a seperate network from things like mastodon.
