The smaller community is really a blessing, rather than a curse. I've seen this come up on reddit again and again: the best subs are the small ones that cater to niche interests. Lemmy is essentially composed entirely of those small subreddits right now.

Hopefully it stays that way.

Well yes but for these niche interest subs to work the platform as a whole needs enough users, because only a small % will visit these subs.
