I'm starting to come around to the idea that kbin/Lemmy doesn't need to experience massive amounts of user growth in order to succeed, and I'm not certain that we'd even want anything approaching the userbase that Reddit has. Similar to how not every city needs to be NYC, and some people prefer living in a smaller city.
I suppose there's a happy medium between "wow this place is dead" and "the cacophony of voices makes posting here feel like shouting into the void" that we're shooting for.
1% of reddit users would be fun, that would be about a 10x increase in current daily users?
The stat I saw was ~70 million users for reddit, so a 7x increase would put us at 1%.
