I just worry that there will come a point when beehaw has too many users for that to work. If we had 1/8 of reddit's users there's still a good chance it would turn into a violent place. Would beehaw limit growth at a certain point?

That's the magic of federation: I hope beehaw would consider closing registration when getting to a certain size that makes moderation harder, allowing for another server to be "the new beehaw" and so on to have a galaxy of easily moderated instances that federate together.

Can we call them "hives" to match the bee setting?
