The next 2 weeks…any predictions/bets on what it will be then?
sick! go team!
Part of me thinks the rapid growth is over and that user retention is the new struggle; but part of me holds out hope that the reddit api finally dying will push over yet another wave of users
What the problem is going to be is attracting the average user. I’m an average, 35-45, mom, tech user. I am struggling on kbin so far. But I’ll get there.
I have been on Lemmy for about 3 weeks. It also got me to return to Mastodon. And both the sites are “fast” enough with new content so that I go to Reddit less and less. It’s enough.
We do need to keep growing. We need to engage new users so they come and stay. But that is a struggle all scaleups know.
Personally lemmy didn’t work out, so I went with kbin. Reddit does not have these kinds of choices.
Yes. The ability for users and admins to literally choose their feature sets while still getting access to the same content is a big, big plus for for the distributed and federated model
