It doesn't need to take down reddit. I'd like to see Lemmy at 1 million active users though. Just need enough critical mass to be able to branch into more smaller sublemmys which draws in the fans of those subs specifically and creates better curated content.

    I was responding kind of someone else as well, but where are these numbers coming from?

    Is it truly 1 million? Or maybe 500k? Or maybe 2 million?

    People seem to be using numbers so arbitrarily.

    I think somewhere between 1-4 million would be a good cross section of interests without a critical mass of users

    500K (for example) people talking in communities wouldn't be enough?

    How did you derive the 1-4 million number?
