The most important people are the first followers. A website with a guy commenting alone is sad for the guy. A website with a couple people commenting is sad for whoever's not talking.

I like the small feel Lemmy has right now, it feels more connected. I’m sure it’ll continue to grow and I’ll like that too, but I’m perfectly content with what we have now
