It’s been a while since I last seen anyone posting graphs showing user base growth. Are we past the initial rush and bleeding numbers now?

    Slow organic growth is far better than explosives, unsustainable growth. We continue to provide content and actual authentic conversation and they will come.

      Yep, I also love the late 00s and early 10s feeling to Lemmy now. I find myself having more stuff done IRL since quitting reddit and browsing Lemmy occasionally.

          And I’m finding myself actually posting comments instead of drafting and deleting them like I did on Reddit for the last 6-7 years. The comment threads really deteriorated on Reddit over the last decade

      I came. And I agree. Anything that gets too popular too quickly just turns to shit. A huge influx of users who stuck around would have ended up turning this place into Reddit 2.0

      I don’t want this to be Reddit 2.0
