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!

      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
