    I would like it if lemmy had near the numbers of reddit (although i dont think that will happen), but the userbase is already big and diverse enough to sustain some good communities that have an (imo) better feeling to them than reddit.

      I wouldn’t. People need to get away from the notion that more users = better. With more users comes trolls, bad faith actors, etc. Quality over quantity.

        It depends on the goal of the platform. For spending your free time on and socializing i fully agree that smaller communities are the best. However as a forum for getting information (especially on niche subjects) more users = better more or less.
