Over 55 million active daily users on Reddit, a fourth would be cool but I’d be happy with a fifty-fifth too.

This is nothing. July's going to be insane.

Haha I didn't know how much reddit does. But even a fraction would be a good place, no oversaturation.

Definitely agree, there’s probably a line we need to cross where fedi becomes self sustaining, without being driven by Reddit’s drama.

What was the Reddit userbase increase at the time of the Digg exodus? Or the Slashdot exodus? I'd be happy with those numbers. The ball should roll from there, especially as people get their grips with the concept of federation.
