Was there even a mass exodus? I largely avoid Reddit now, but I do kind of doubt that they’ve been hurt in any meaningful way by all the protests and people leaving…

only thing i cant stand about lemmy is trying to understand what the fuck it is and how it works.
some top post about a “sub”? “lemmy place”? idk what to call it, “defederating from us”. does that mean from all lemmy things, that lemmy thing? what does it mean to defederate? is there an easy way to browse for subs like reddit?
All the Lemmy (and Kbin) servers (instances) can theoretically talk to each other. You can follow communities on other instances and comment and post like you are used to.
You could think of each server as an independent city-state, each with it’s own leaders, customs and citizens.
If two instances have a feud that can’t be resolved, they will “defederate” and then their users will no longer be able to contact each other.
There are Nazi instances here in the Fediverse (for example), but they get blocked on sight so you almost never see their garbage in the feeds.
Does that help?
Yes thank you very much
