Address some of the issues. Like not having multiple similar posts, on different instances with similar named communities.
Also to reach critical mass, we need to keep posting. Addition of new apps such as Boost will also increase popularity
It was like that on reddit too. Hell, Seattle alone had around 8 subreddits.
Reddit has the users to sustain multiple communities. On Lemmy, it turns what could be a community into a bunch of individual people screaming into the void alone.
But it didn't sustain them all and some of them faltered. It's the exact same situation imo.
