What's happening is that the bigger communities that are just about a topic but not really a tribe or wealth of useful data (think r/funny or r/pics) stick around.
reddit is valuable because it has so many smaller niche communities dedicate to specific tribes. But these are now leaving or shutting down, see r/blind and r/EvilGenius and r/Minecraft ( https://kbin.social/m/technology@beehaw.org/t/67146/r-blind-community-migrates-to-Lemmy https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/92087/r-EvilGenius-was-a-labour-of-love-and-u-Spez-shat-in https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/104772/Minecraft-is-leaving-Reddit )
And individual users are deleting or editing their comments before they close their user accounts. So a lot of the good info that used to be on reddit - that made reddit valuable - is leaving.
