But still it is not reddit before reddit api changes. And probably won't have a new platform like reddit.
The only reason threads is this popular is because they have the marketing machine of Facebook and billions of dollars.
Plus they have monster hardware to support everything.
The fact that lemmy is where it is is already outstanding.
Nor Mastodon is Twitter in any moment of Twitter's recent history.
Anyway. Regarding your post: it seems to me that the hashtag+short reply system is simply more popular than the community+long reply system. Even then, when compared with the platforms that it competes with, Lemmy's popularity is proportional to the one of Mastodon and other Twitter alternatives.
