    I feel like the vast majority of casual users won’t really bother switching. I only bothered cos Reddit was the only thing even remotely close to social media that I used

      That’s what I was wondering, if it would feel less like a “great migration” and more like a “great filtration.” Which ideally would mean varied yet like-minded users, if that somehow makes sense.

        That is a great way to look at it. I left FB at least 10 years ago. I ended up arguing with a family member and realized how pointlessly stupid the entire platform was for me. I didn’t use social media other than reddit for nearly a decade.

        It’s just time to move on to the next thing. It’s weird because that jump has to happen with other people but not too many.

      Per social media, it was my only personal one. I started my own community and ran it for years on their site. The reason I left is because it’s becoming blatantly obvious that money is driving decisions. While that’s a valid way to decide things, it’s not how I decide, nor want my interactions with others decided.
