I think @lemmy @lemmyworld might not get the support Mastodon got because Twitter is more seriously used by some people and needed an urgent alternative whereas Reddit is still primarily used for entertainment

    Wrong. On the App Store (Apple), the official Reddit app is 1st while Twitter is 2nd. Reddit is extensively used.

      @Mereo A) statistics like app downloads are often misleading. You should look at how many people left Twitter after their changes vs Reddit

      B) Twitter is not used by many people. But its used by influential people- Stars, Politicians, you name it. Who uses a platform makes a difference.

      C) Never said anything about total usage. Similar to B) what a platform is used for also makes a difference
