In recent days I have seen these two arguments repeated quite commonly. From reddits side it was all about how "noones using Lemmy anyway"

While from Lemmy it was "how numbers have been exploding"

My question is, why do numbers of users matter so much to anyone really? Isnt activity what matters more?

On two questions here I gotten just as much engagement if not more than anything I did on reddit combined

I've always liked Reddit because it enables communities to gather around niche subjects. With less people those communities can't form.
