I'd prefer a slow but steady rise instead of explosive one. Instance like Lemmy.world just couldn't take the heavy load any further without Lemmy fixing the issue(iirc there's a bug causing high load with no apparent reason).
As for the growth, idk, i feels like lemmy cannot realistically pull majority of Reddit user unless Lemmy also turn to reddit, like have the feature that appeal to general masses. So i think it's much better to remain low while grow steadily. Not like we have the choice tbh.
I think thats right. The reason I got fed up with reddit is because I realized I was arguing with teenagers. I couldn't be sure, but my gut told me a lot of the time the reason the person was being entirely unreasonable was because they were trying to "win" an argument, rather than talk about something.
My concern w/ Lemmy is the same- if it becomes too common and popular, it will just have everyone on the internet on it, and very young people are very on the internet
Yeah, but it already happened here, after all this place house the refugee from the blackout
