Comment on Now that PewDiePie is on his Linux/engineering arc, could he help boost the Fediverse?

  God bless those people. I hope for more like minded individuals to help them out, but I still would personally not wish for lemmy to have thousands of votes and comments per post. Quality over quantity for me personally.

    We're far away from thousands of votes and comments per post, don't worry.

    !fedigrow@lemm.ee is full of people trying to build communities about popular topics, only to be shouting into the void

      The issue is also partially that of those migrating to Linux from windows, in that they try to match their experience, ignoring all the other features they now have acquired. Communities will come organically, when there’s enough people to warrant them. Lots of tech communities as Lemmy users are usually tech affine.

      It’s fine if there is not a subreddit clone for everything here yet. Maybe it will come, maybe it won’t.

        Problem is a lot of people don’t remember early reddit it was the same way lots of tech folks then grew organic from there.

    I hope that lemmy doesn’t grow any heavier than it is growing right now

    I hope for more like minded individuals to help them out

    How is the latter supposed to happen without the former? Like it or not, many of us are here solely because Reddit went to shit with their extreme monetization. Lemmy is still a really small community and absolutely NEEDS larger adoption in order to remain a viable option
