Subjectively, Lemmy's communities are much more robust and have a lot more content than they did during the Reddit API exodus. I imagine there will be more people who choose to stay this time around.

Yep, I discovered let me during the API Exodus, and then came back recently with this last wave. They're definitely feels like there's a lot more here than last time!

Also finding a lot of value in reading and actually interacting with comments and content, on Reddit I just felt kind of drowned out and a lurker

The problem is that communities feel dead if they're below a certain critical mass of users and the resulting content. If we can hit that critical mass it will take off on its own

Yep we all need to get posting and chatting to encourage others
