I don’t think anyone here expected reddit to just fall over and die from the protests, nor is it a competition.

Lemmy will probably never reach the heights reddit have done but it’s a growing community with great potential and I for one am really enjoying being part of it.

Just because the site is up does not mean it is functioning like normal. It is clear they are moderating the first page heavily now. And things are off. The top post on my feed is a TIL. Those never make it to the top especially with only 8k karma on them. This isn’t normal, this is the admins trying to make it appear normal.
