I'm starting to come around to the idea that kbin/Lemmy doesn't need to experience massive amounts of user growth in order to succeed, and I'm not certain that we'd even want anything approaching the userbase that Reddit has. Similar to how not every city needs to be NYC, and some people prefer living in a smaller city.

I suppose there's a happy medium between "wow this place is dead" and "the cacophony of voices makes posting here feel like shouting into the void" that we're shooting for.

I think the problem is finding communities that are what you actually want. The killer feature of reddit was that you could find a subreddit for basically any niche.

This was not the case for a number of years on Reddit. I think only the last 4 years have been basically if I need topic I can find it.
