How many people made 2-3 accounts to compensate for outages? Less outages means less alts being active .

Of course that won't accout for the whole amount of people leaving, but I bet if we could get that metric it wouldn't seem near as bad

This is true. I made accounts on like 7 different instances when migrating, but now I only ever use like 2

I mean, isn't this exactly what we would expect? Big influx of people when reddit does something unpopular and people want alternatives, then a decrease as the anger fades and people either decide they don't like Lemmy for some reason, or just settle down into their normal, less active amount of posting, stabilizing at a number of users lower than the peak but higher than before the influx. Assuming that Lemmy still is around the next time Reddit gets people mad, it'll happen again, just like how Mastodon gets an influx of new users whenever Twitter does something to upset it's userbase.

If I could post images, there would be more content... I don't understand why I can't.

I have to admit that I still go back to Reddit regularly. There‘s just (still) more interesting / engaging content and more interaction there. Although I would be happy to go „all in fediverse“.

Oh no! Anyway...
