A few. I have just 2 that have moved to the fediverse (very hesitantly), and a few activated threads but mostly out of "I don't want to be on twitter anymore". Not even trying with my older family members, although I have switched my tune to "here are my accounts if you want to follow me", welcoming them to follow, but only on the accounts I'm on.
Props to you for getting a few to migrate over. Beyond the confusion that comes with federated media sign-up, Lemmy is definitely facing the chicken-or-egg problem. To get people to joi, it needs more substantial, diverse content. But to have that content, it needs a larger user base.
Yeah only a couple, and they already hated corporate social media and are fairly socially concious. I talked with them a bit, asked what their favorite style was, one preferred twitter and the other Insta. So, set one up on mastodon and the other on pixelfed, and just sent them direct links to servers to sign up. They can always move, but essentially figured they could just get set up that way and see how it goes.
