Yeah, nowhere near the size of reddit, but who wants that? Easier to have discussions without bazillions of people posting crap like "works for me" or being dicks.
I don't really trust other alternatives. Being unfederated, they rely on a closed source solution maintained by a single person or very small group of people. There's nothing in place if the plugs ever get pulled, everything is lost and like reddit, whose to say these owners won't turn their website slowly into the cesspit reddit is?
Yeah, an instance owner of lemmy/kbin could theoretically pull the plug on their instance or enshitify it, but you can just switch to a different instance and keep accessing the content you were.

Hii
HOOOOTIE WHOOOO
Aloha.
Many are around. All ? May-be not, some people would have moved to other places (discord, Mastodon, and more)
Welcome here, looks like you already got the federation concept and how to access communities which aren't on your home instance, congrats. Remember that you're part of the community and be the change you want to see
Sometimes, it's a bit messy as you get 3 communities with the same name on different instance and only one of the 3 is active, but in general it's works
here from Reddit my main community (uselessserver093) could've benefited from lemmyshitpost incident but didn't
Sup dood.
My account is older than the Reddit exodus, but I did started to use it after the Reddit's 3rd party app drama.

Boost for reddit still works so ๐คทโโ๏ธ I just use both. once Boost goes away then maybe I'll try the main app again but probably not much
