Did Reddit get massive because of Digg users making a beeline towards them or were they already big before that?

Counter point: lemmy doesn't need to do anything to become a top website. Just stay decentralized and independently run. If that's meant to be a "top website" so be it, but that's not why I'm here.

I share similar thoughts. I care more about the quality of the content and most importantly the quality of the community than the popularity of the website. I do hope that we continue to grow and that the growth will be to the benefit of the community.
