    We are so used to the idea that a social media network has to dominate the world - ekse it’s a failure. If Lemmy, Mastodon, Pixelfed or your old fishing forum is enjoyed by some people, it’s a success.

      It’s a capitalist habit. People are so used to every company having to maximize profits that they forget this is just a space to share and talk about stuff, not an entity aiming to make a profit.

      This needs to be instilled into everyone’s brain. If the site grows a community it’s a success.

      If anything having it not turn into the behemoth that Reddit is might make the community even better.
