Probably not, reddit, like all modern social media platforms, is essentially “too big to fail”. They have captured and cornered their markets and will continue to dominate indefinitely.
Throughout all of these things reddit’s user growth has went up, not down. Daily Active Users grow, month over month, more than 20x the entire population of Lemmy., just think about that, there’s more growth to the daily active user count on a monthly basis (not the totally user count), then the entire population of Lemmy, x20.
It’s depressing to think about. But it’s also reality. And reality fucking sucks.
All I can hope is that lemmy and similar continue to grow.
According to ad hoc statistics. Between 25-50% of posters are bots. However posters are only about 10% of the Reddit population.
If we make a completely incorrect assumption and say that every single user is a poster, that still means 10-15x the entire population of Lemmy, it doesn’t really change much here.
If you take the difference between posters and lockers into account and you are crazy harsh with the bot numbers you’re really only reducing the population of non-bits by like 20% or so.

How many of those accounts are bots?
Those are shareholder approved autonomous marketing and engagement agents. Not bots. -Spez
