I understand the bot concern, but when I look at the comment and active user figures, they're all in the same trendline of exponential growth. This is the exodus just beginning. Personally I'm finding Lemmy to be a refreshing alternative that serves far better than what Reddit has become. I think it's what we've all been waiting for, and the secret's starting to get out.
It's actually pretty badass to see how quick the response is developing and the awareness being so immediate. What's really cool is to see what gets done about a problem with full transparency, instead of Reddit Admins' chamber of secrets.
