I’m here to help the place grow. Let’s do it!
I created an account a while back and I'm back after receiving a warning from reddit for upvoting certain content. I was going through the communities looking for stuff to subscribe to and I was a bit surprised by the number of communities with a couple thousand users and the last post being half a month or more out.
I hope people's suggestions about making the instances and navigation more seamless is being taken seriously because there hasn't been much change there from what I'm seeing.
Even though 50k is a nice number of MAUs and allows for active discussion in the bigger communities, it's still not enough to fuel niche communities - at least presuming the 90-9-1 rule applies even to early adopters such as us. While I agree that discoverability could be a lot better, I think what's holding back the smaller communities right now is lacking critical mass more than anything else.
That's really good to see. But it will be far more interesting to see what the numbers are a month and longer are from now. If they don't stick, it's pretty meaningless.
I'm more of a lurker, but just recently joined also
Glad to be here!!
I totally understandable i'm actually using a timer app timer now so i can keep track of how much i'm using it and try to lower it each month.
Reddit is a tough one because your brain loves new information. It devours it. It wants it.
Step up Lemmy, cometh the hour cometh the platform!
Lemmy is fantastic!
