It is underrated, and I’d love to see more people knowing about alternatives to big tech companies and services, I also hope it never happens. Reddit is full of annoying, rude trolls and dipshits. I am glad Lemmy has a pretty polite userbase.
The current userbase is fine if you like to discuss Linux, Star Trek, politics, or memes. It’s absolutely not large enough for any topic that’s even somewhat niche.

It’s a dilemma… We need more users… But doing so will also bring in more dipshit and organizations astroturfing content.
Do we really need more users though? Lemmy is like original Reddit right now which is much better IMO.
