Most people just wanna doom-scroll, they have no interest in having conversations.

You know what? I think I’m okay with the fediverse simply never getting as big and popular as Reddit is/was. Over the years, as it got more popular, I definitely noticed that the average quality of interactions I had on Reddit slowly but steadily declined. Lemmy feels like old-school Reddit, which I am honestly pretty happy about.

That's what I keep saying. I keep getting told I'm wrong though, that Lemmy needs to be easier to join, and hit critical mass and become the reddit killer because that's the only way we can exist.

Like, no thank you. I'm happy with Lemmy NOW, I don't need it to keep growing!

I think some more growth would definitely be good for the community. There's still a lot of room for growth before we even come close to being as big as early 10's reddit.
