Where are all of the reddit refugees these days? (lemm.ee)

Just making sure I'm in the right place. I cannot see any developed communities here so I've started wondering, what's the real place everyone from Reddit has moved to? I've heard something about Discuit, but never tried it.

If I had to bet I'd say most migrated to Discord. Many Reddit refugees are here and some more are on kbin. A lot of people went to squabbles.io and tildes.net too, apparently, but I've never used those since I'd rather stay within the fediverse.

How is Discord anything at all like reddit? Imgur I could see redditors migrating to (which is what I did at first before settling here), but Discord? Really?

All those handy conversations that were previously accessible via a search engine are now limited to a walled garden.

It's now* called Squabblr and the owner seems to be speed running the spez management style. Had a mass exodus to Discuit recently.
