Okay sure but who's going to fill up all the for-profit prisons and act as military gun fodder? Won't somebody please think about the military industrial complex??
Even though you've done some nice work here, I'm reluctant to take those figures, particularly the change percentages, at face value.
There are colossal numbers of bots submitting posts and comments which metrics like this can't identify, which dilutes the real numbers. Of course bots would not be able to post to private subs, but it's less clear how much of the remaining traffic is human and how much is bots posting to empty subreddits as per the dead internet theory.
Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.
I think you do have to be careful here though. If you're too permissive you allow bigotry, but if you're too restrictive you cut off honest, good faith debate and create echo chamber silos where beliefs are never challenged.
Bigotry should never be accepted but that means non-discriminatory opinions, especially ones you disagree with, should be allowed.

What kinds of things from reddit would you like to see Lemmy avoid as the user base grows?
