That's assuming the goal is to get to 'mass market'.

Lemmy existed before the Reddit exodus. It will exist when they all go back.

In that case, why even bring up Lemmy as a Reddit alternative? It just serves to attract people who won’t be good users and waste their time

Lemmy has the same functionality, and allows people to both control their own conditions and talk to anyone. That's the reason this whole ruckus is happening. Centralized alternatives don't have that. I don't know who said lemmy is an alternative to reddit, because just like mastodon/twitter, it's not. Or rather, not so simple.
