Where did you get that impression? I’d genuinely be interested in knowing the arguments that back the assertion stated in the OP, as well as the scope of "core" in it’s context.
I got this impression from several sources. Some related to tracking sentiment on Bitcoin generally for prospective investors. Others for marketing and promoting ICO and STO projects.
And in Feb there was a piece about a third of referrals dropping in one month to bitcointalk.org

So as a newbie I see a lot of discussion and activity IMO. But not able to compare to 2-3 years ago activity.

It is an absurd idea without significant benefits and it will likely spur further chaos since we all all knew bitcointalk.org is the premier
forum to tackle everything related to Bitcoin. Reddit is not designed to handle in-depth discussions in a forum like manner just like
what bitcointalk.org offers. Imho.

If Bitcointalk is dead because "core bitcoin community moved from Bitcointalk to Reddit" then
who are all these people now having discussions on Bitcointalk? Asking for a friend..

Does your "friend's" name start with an R and end with an R? Just curious.
I think the question is more hypothetical in the sense that where the discussions will take place in case Bitcointalk no longer exists, but there is no reason to expect that this will ever happen. I'm pretty sure that in the worst case scenario the community will bring it back to life in some form or shape.
One thing is sure, they will NOT be taking place on bitchcoin dot com's forum.

This is a good forum, you just need to look in the right boards.
Not as relevant for crypto and blockchain insight. To me it seems pretty active.

Besides the quality side to discussions that can be taking place in one and another platform, there is also the quantitate side. On this latter measure, I’ve come across a site that claims to provide stats on reddit, and for Bitcoin it shows as follows: https://subredditstats.com/r/Bitcoin If the numbers are true, the interesting ones would be Comments per Day (917) and Posts per Day (146). I’m not a Reddit user, so I can’t tell if those numbers are good, great or what.
Quality comparison wise I where it would be interesting to expand, and that is why I wanted to know what backed the initial OP' assertion.

There are many developers from Bitcoin core who still use this forum, so I don't think your information is correct.
This is a good forum, you just need to look in the right boards. This board is a bad one, but technical discussion and support boards, for example, are very good.
