Attached: 1 image Signs of the #RedditMigration in action: Three of the top 6 fastest growing #Fediverse servers are not only not Mastodon.social but they are not even microblogging servers - but rather are #Threadiverse servers. That is only seriously good for the entire Fedi infrastructure. Diversity is strength. #Kbin #Lemmy #FediDB @fediversereport@mastodon.social @fediversenews@venera.social @fediverseobserver@fediverse.one

While I don’t expect there’s going to be any meaningful impact on Reddit once the dust settles, I do think this will bring a lot of new users to the Fediverse.

Reddit losing a few hundred thousand users is a drop in a bucket given their user base, but it is a significant boost for us.

    I think things will probably slow down a bit again after the initial euphoria is over, but yes, I think this has brought a lot of attention to Fediverse alternatives.

      That’s a good thing, and after slowing down instance admins can focus on improving the experience for existing users.

      Reddit blackouts were the kick the Fediverse needed to reach a critical mass. Fediverse sites are already starting to appear in Google search and join-lemmy.org is the third result when you look up “lemmy”.
