Now it’s a matter of sustaining and slow growth. Hopefully. Best thing you can do to see Lemmy succeed is participate: comment, post, doomscroll All+Top Hou ;)
It’ll take a while for some of the smaller communities to get critical mass. And that’s okay, probably. Critical mass is here for the larger topics already. I’ll do my best to help :)
For sure. The rate of development has skyrocketed the last month or so, and letting Lemmy mature a bit, as well as all the apps under development isn’t a bad thing. I still think it’s a little technical, and I don’t want to sacrifice any of the utility provided by separate instances and federation, so letting things mature a bit should help make things less fiddly for less technically inclined people.
In the meantime, a self-sustaining, engaged, and quality community is better than a large community.
