    To expand? Gain influence down the road? Diversify?

      To expand?

      Like adding a deck chair to a mega-yacht.

      Gain influence down the road?

      Lemmy has no influence. The only thing it tries to influence is moving people to Linux, and that’s been going poorly for the better part of two decades…

      Diversify?

      Without the two above, I don’t see the benefit.

        I remember something similar being said about reddit back in the day.

          I used Reddit alongside Digg, and it was rarely ever as empty as Lemmy.

          Many of the niche communities didn’t exist, sure, but the big subs were at least 10x larger than the big communities here.
