    If this place ends up with 70 million users, I won’t be one of them. Lemmy isn’t a for-profit company. It doesn’t need growth for the sake of growth.

    Besides, lemmy growth isn’t a measure of Reddit shrinkage. Lots of people are just quitting without a replacement.

      Imagine hosting an instance if Lemmy had that many users. I can imagine it being a full time job.

      Agree to disagree. I miss having niche communities, and the only way to get them is with a large user base.
