I created an account a while back and I'm back after receiving a warning from reddit for upvoting certain content. I was going through the communities looking for stuff to subscribe to and I was a bit surprised by the number of communities with a couple thousand users and the last post being half a month or more out.

I hope people's suggestions about making the instances and navigation more seamless is being taken seriously because there hasn't been much change there from what I'm seeing.

Even though 50k is a nice number of MAUs and allows for active discussion in the bigger communities, it's still not enough to fuel niche communities - at least presuming the 90-9-1 rule applies even to early adopters such as us. While I agree that discoverability could be a lot better, I think what's holding back the smaller communities right now is lacking critical mass more than anything else.

That can't be true. we only have 466 judging by the upvote count. xD

Just got here and started a regional community for the American Midwest. Come on down!

There is an entire instance for the Midwest. Have a look to check if they already have an active community

Lemmy is fantastic!

You know it’s so simple to just click a different app and go back to infinite scrolling the way I’m used to.

I’m not a fussy user, I don’t get all up in arms over changes in functionality or whatever. It’s also nice not to see orange man on the internet whenever I scroll
