    Most of their moneymakers are casual internet users who don’t care about any of this stuff and would only stop using reddit of it literally became unusable. If everyone who would be willing to use Lemmy stopped using reddit permanently right now they still wouldn’t care and would have plenty of users left.

      That’s irrelevant. No one cares if Reddit cares right now. They start caring when it affects their bottom line and, as we’re already seeing, bot accounts and reposts that have taken over are hurting their bottom dollar because people aren’t seeing the ads. If you’re still going there, you’re helping them get paid.
