    Yes. We don’t need millions of users to be successful. We come on here for a reason, we enjoy it. And to me that’s all that’s needed for success.

      I still wouldn’t mind 100k monthly active users, or even 75k.

      That should mean one additional active poster on all the community where I’m alone, and that would be cool

      I come here because I am fairly positive most are actual humans. A lot of the real idiots on reddit are bots looking to increase engagement.

          I would agree with the second half. I see a lot of insane takes on economics that are driven by hopes and dreams rather than reality.

          The real advantage is I suspect if I reach out to an instance owner about problematic material on their instance they will address it whereas Reddit has gone out of theor way to make it harder to let reddit know about problematic material eg non-consensual sexual materials.

      Yup!

      I really dislike the notion that every website needs to aim to gather everyone on the internet to it - one platform to rule them all.

      Can’t we just have lots of smaller sites that have their own communities, cultures, and histories?
