It's evident in the quality of posts and comments in the old place.
I don't really mind the lower traffic here. Seems like all the intelligence left the old building at once. Either that or I've forgotten just how trash it had become.

I think lemmy has a lot of growing pains before it can become a full fledge alternative for the masses. Updates need to happen, and a sustainable business model needs to come about for admins to cover costs
Seen instance wars, admin egos, random censorship and many other fediverse issue.
Not looking forward to ir anymore to be honest.
IMHO reddit is still the same. Looking at /r/all is about the same. Among the smaller subreddits that I care about (programming subreddits), the activity has decreased, but I think it's recovering a bit.
Lemmy can absolutely replace my previous /r/all experience, but the programming communities are still too small.
I started using Mastodon 3 years ago and only now can I say that it has replaced my previous Twitter experience.
I'm confident that Lemmy will become more relevant, but this should take more time.
