User visits and time spent on the social media platform normalize after traffic to Reddit briefly dipped last week during the blackout, according to SimilarWeb.
Agree 100% on the critical mass. Last week I would visit a day later and sort by new, and there’d be maybe a page of stuff since my last visit. Now I am back to sorting by top day, because going through new would take hours.
I think it’s not just more users that are here, but that the users who are here are invested now. It’s no longer just a fun toy to hack around with, it’s potentially a new home so we are starting to decorate :-)
We’re not going to get the same numbers as Reddit, and that’s a good thing. I don’t want already users to leave. I want the smart ones to leave and come here. The ones who have something to say, the ones who can engage in discussion and debate, the type of people who made up reddit’s early user base.
The idiots who just want to scroll memes and TikTok style low effort videos all day and can’t have a respectful conversation to save their own life, Reddit can have them. They install apps without question and don’t use ad blockers so maybe Reddit can make some money of them. Best of luck with it.
