Did Reddit get massive because of Digg users making a beeline towards them or were they already big before that?

    The entire LCS regular season I made post match threads at [email protected] . I always enjoy those discussions. Six weeks, 2-3 days a week, so maybe 15 posts. I probably got a dozen comments combined. I went into a few team discords asking for engagement.

    On Reddit that’s more like 78 posts. Each of those posts on Reddit will get hundreds of comments. 12 comments on Lemmy versus way more than 1600 comments on Reddit.

    The league communities here aren’t anywhere close to 0.1% of the league community there.

    It’s hard to build from absolutely nothing.
