Chasing users fleeing another platform is not a long-term valuable strategy.

Effort is better spent trying to figure out the compelling reason for people to join the network independently.

Chasing fleeing users is just a band-aid; building a robust, attractive ecosystem is the real fix for sustainable growth.
