I think I'm on Lemmy for the long haul - I like the fediverse decentralisation. The hardest part of Reddit to abandon will be the search results on Google, but perhaps we'll see something similar with Lemmy in a few years if it picks up steam.
Yeah the search results are what I'm most worried about. There's a ridiculous amount of troubleshooting solutions and discussions on Reddit and losing that is going to suck. It's probably gonna take a few years of growth for Lemmy to even begin to take its place, but luckily a lot of the tech community on Reddit has already moved here so it shouldn't take as long.
