I’m new here on Lemmy.
When looking at the different communities, I get really surprised at how few people are using it. For instance, the ProCreate community says 4 / users per month. Does that mean only 4 people are being active? Or have I misunderstood?
Thank you in advance!
it means x people have been active. As in they have commented or posted in the community in that month.
Okay thank you. I’m just surprised that it’s so few!
I think there will be a natural constriction and consolidation in communities over the next few months.
It was almost like a landgrab with all the excitement and people creating communities. A lot of them were similar so they are diluted a bit.
I think, eventually, we’ll see people gravitate to one or two particular instances of <type of community here> and the other will close or wither.
I wish some of the Lemmy servers were more intentional about community creation though–to reduce the number of similar communities.
I get that. I hope you’re right so we can get bigger but fewer communities about the same topic
