    Honestly, I expect that the parts of the Web I enjoy spending time will be fragmented for the foreseeable future.

    Lemmy people are obsessed with growth but honestly I think there’s a trade-off that people are overlooking.

      Yeah. I don’t get the obsession with growth. I get missing some communities you want to have (that you had on Reddit for instance) but then try to cultivate those communities instead of wanting general growth. General growth just will eventually just lead to low effort posting/commenting drowning out interesting posts/discussions.

      Also, if the platform is good it will grow anyway.
