    There’s not enough users yet for every community to have daily activity.

    And not everyone who might like a given community, has found it yet.

    The solution to both is to recommend lemmy to friends and to post stuff yourself.

    Yeah, it’s been way too quiet here. Where is everyone? I don’t want to go back to “that site”

    I think it was a mistake trying to recreate all niche communities to begin with. We should have just created larger communities, which over time naturally create niche offshoots.

      I wouldn’t say it was a mistake, but it was certainly overly ambitious. It’s the fediverse, people are free to build communities how they see fit. But we also have to live with people using that freedom in suboptimal ways. The cream will eventually rise to the top.
