I don't think I would like Lemmy as much if it got big (discuss.online)

Currently Lemmy has a decent selection of communities and nearly any post gets a good traction, you easily find yourself in convos and can recognise others if you frequent enough

I don't think this would be the case for long if Lemmy got big, maybe 10% of Reddit is enough

But maybe because of how Lemmy is maintained, instances like beehaw might defederate, again allowing for smaller communities

I don't know, I really like where Lemmy is tbh, bit iffy on the .world situation, donated a bit, Lemmy is nice. Yeah. Lemmy is nice. I like Lemmy.

Right? For DIY hotas stuff, specific subreddits for actualbudget questions, and that sort of niche thing I find myself having to go back. There simply isn't a large enough population for those things to be useful here. If I created a community, statistically I think I would be the only one in it indefinitely, going by the size of the reddit sub.
