Yeah we’re kinda doing well. Retaining 50k mau from the initial user burst is really good and Lemmy was technologically really bad at the time. Its a lot more developed today. I think next time reddit fucks uo we spike to over 100k users and steadily grow from there.

That’ll come over time. Reddit didn’t start with all those diverse groups either. It was mostly tech based stuff with some news sprinkled in initially.
