no users. Lets stop pretending we can fix this by moving to yet another different platform

"We can't fix the 'no users' problem by adding more users"

if all the people who said this actually went on Lemmy/PieFed and started leaving comments on posts, they would have nothing left to complain about

As if complaining with no power will convince capitalists to make changes.

These people just love to complain that Reddit doesn't listen to them, but they still sit at the trough when Reddit ignores them. Why should Reddit spend good money trying to appease them if they aren't even going to threaten to leave

IMO someone looking to be fed a constant stream of content will always be happier with commercial platforms. Someone looking to participate in a community or have discussions can be convinced to come to the fediverse.
