I really don't get the growth hostile crowd. Things are barely alive right now and they are fine with more people leaving.
Top post says Lemmy is big enough.
Um, no. All my hobby subs either don't exist or have no content. All my local community subs either don't exist or have no content.
I don't want r/pics or r/politics, but I do want to talk about my hobbies and local happenings in my Canadian city.
Shit, there's not even an active community on lemmy for New York. The Toronto one on lemmy.ca is at least somewhat active, but not very lively. If lemmy can't even get a critical mass for the biggest metro areas in North America, we're never going to see communities for even medium sized cities.
I'd settle for even general sports communities based on college football or NFL, I've given up team specific communities.
