Again, doesn’t matter. There’s data on logged in users and it’s also many orders of magnitude larger than Fedi.
By most independent metrics Reddit has more visits than Netflix. Than Pornhub, while we’re at it. It’s one of the top ten most visited sites on the Internet, and by most accounts it’s actually grown since the “exodus”.
I don’t use it and I do like it here, but the idea that Lemmy is somehow encroaching on it is absurd. And self-defeating, too. Lemmy and its satellites are very worthwhile for what they are… a gnat in the wind as a Reddit alternative. Better to measure them on their own merits.
Yeah, see my rant elsewhere in this comment section, but I personally do not desire Reddit 2.0. More users here will be good, but if Lemmy ever becomes the size of Reddit, even with its differences, it will not be what we want it to be anymore

Agreed, but the proportion of users that contributed and made it a positive experience there was significantly smaller.
Quality over quantity.

reddit has the advantage that you need it to make google useful these days
