I assumed it's because Lemmy has more users over 30. I think most of the younger people are still hoping in vain that Reddit will stop being horrible. I imagine they'll be here soon enough lol
If they can handle the app, there's no reason to come to lemmy. Reddit is better, only reason I'm (and many others) not there, is their shitty app.
For me it was Huffman basically saying he planned to ruin the site AND force everyone to use the shitty app so that he could sell off Reddit in the IPO to put more money into his own overstuffed pockets. Then he allowed everyone to graffiti a fake wall about how mad they were for one whole week so those who stayed could pretend like they were "fighting the man" and then completely stop talking about it lol
I wasn't a fan of that either, but ultimately it doesn't matter. I used it as a time waster, the politics of the site just aren't that important to me.
