Similar to Mastodon's spikes last year, it seems. Anyways, there is data to think about. Source

I mean Facebook is actually a perfect example though no? I don't know anyone below 40 who uses it. Eventually people get fed up of these stupid websites and move elsewhere.
Reddit will be around just like Facebook sure, but somewhere else will pick up the slack.
In Facebooks case that was Instagram largely which you know, also they owned. In Reddits case it may be Lemmy it may be elsewhere, we will see.
But that's the point I'm making here. Facebook didn't fall and Reddit won't either. It's going to evolve, cater to different clientele, offer different content/experience. But it won't fall.
I mean fair I guess we're on the same page there then. But if it caters to a different clientele then the existing clientele will move elsewhere was really what I was getting at, and that may possibly be here.
Aye.
This is both a blessing and a curse. Already there are some... less welcome, Reddit behaviors visible here. I'd rather people leave their old baggage at the doorstep, heh. 😬
