    I wonder would one reason be that if “the most” of the community is there, it’s just better to be there with the folks and the content rather than take a leap to a much smaller place and feel small or lonely or something like that…

    (I haven’t used kbin/lemmy for more than an hour - seeing whether this is a new place to stay)

      Yes, of course. The network effect is buoying up Reddit as it is and probably will be until a critical mess of users leave it for good. Besides the obvious truth that Lemmy/Kbin are slower and that’s not what Redditors are used to who have learned to expect something new every time they update their frontpage.
