Most of the initial communities made primarily on lemmy.world benefited from the initial flood of users joining from Reddit after the API fiasco. Most of them didn't stick around - but their presence on as subscribers on those communities still persists. It's a false number.

Subscribers aren't a great metric to determine community viability in many cases.

And the current uptick in piefed is because it's new tool in the block. It still remains to see if people stick around.

So, yea, we'll see how that pans out.

Well I'm talking specifically about communities on the fediverse here as they move between instances, not piefeds local activity.
