What it says on the tin, really. I think this is going to be an issue when they get around to the smaller communities... It's going to suck majorly, as most people's default will remain with reddit for community discussion like this...

Splinter the community, I'm going to stay with the people who went through the mess of setting up a new place that isn't beholden to Reddit. It may be forever smaller, but of the 600,000 subscribers, how many of them contribute?

It may be forever smaller

I would honestly consider this a feature, not a bug.

[–] FormerGameDev@midwest.social 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

eh, it is what it is, and i'd say not really either. For now, probably nearly everyone that's staying here is probably a contributing member, but if we continue building and promoting this community, then it will get to a sizeable number of lurkers. As long as we don't attract bad actors, or bad actors are dealt with swiftly, it's all good.

yeah we gotta grow this community. And wait for reddit to make the next mistake that will drive people here.

[–] FormerGameDev@midwest.social 2 points 1 year ago

For sure. If this community stagnates, it will eventually die of attrition.
