I mean like this: “Realized that most of these programs are not meant to help anyone, merely to control people and make them dependent. I was forced to reconsider everything I’d once believed. I developed a profound distrust of government regardless of the philosophy of the people in power. I remained a liberal on civil-rights issues, became a conservative on defense, and a semi-libertarian on all other matters.” - Dean Koontz. Am I wrong?

    Working on UX is a big necessity. However, it’s fine if communities are sitting on the biggest instances, although I would like it more if users were more distributed. People from smaller instances can anyway participate in the communities sitting elsewhere. In general I agree about having more users though, but the point for me is which users. Communities are growing, Lemmy (in my experience/bubble) is already completely different from how it was 2 weeks go (way more content). It will take time for niche communities, but I don’t think that sacrificing what makes this place unique is worth the artificial influx of users that might come with it. We are experiencing a small and organic growth (3k active users a day circa), I think it’s going to work out (especially if we all make a little effort - maybe more than we would have done in platforms).
