I don’t know how you could track uninstalls outside of informal polls. I’d consider myself as having fully dropped Reddit for Lemmy, but on occasion I’ll follow a link on Lemmy to the Reddit site.
Monthly active users gives a rough estimate but doesn’t account for people registering on multiple servers and alt accounts (and of course we can’t forget the occasional toxic spammer). But subtracting that from Reddit traffic barely puts a dent in it.
I think Reddit will stay a similar size or continue to grow a bit, but overall quality of it has been circling the drain for a while now. I don’t think the IPO is going to help at all with that, only make it worse.
