Great, few more reasons to stay away from that. I thought the whole point of the reddit/fediverse thing was that you used an anonymous nick that is purged from time to time. Who cares about followers? There are interesting things discussed, that’s it.
I just checked Lemmy stats - how is it possible that we lost 400 000 users recently? If people check it out and leave for good, wouldn’t that still be counted in the user base?
