Totally agree. For example, Madtodon was designed to be less addictive compared to Twitter. These platforms don’t share the same financial model, so they don’t share the same growth incentives either. Lemmy can grow as big as the users want it to be, but it shouldn’t aim to grow as big as possible. These are two very different worlds.
Absolutely. I mean, it would be nice to have more users in more communities, but with that I mean that maybe 10 or 20k is more than enough for a vibrant community. No need to aspire to multi-million users communities like any modestly large subreddit. Lemmy isn’t and shouldn’t aspire to be a reddit clone.
