I’m not trying to be gatekeeper at all. But we are absolutely not ready for an overnight deluge of 100 Million users. Nor does Lemmy have the technology in place to combat shills, influencers, bots, scammers and all the other crap that would be here next week if all of Reddit migrated.
I really want the Fediverse to grow, but I want that process to be organic. I want the servers, apps, mod tools to grow with the users.
For sure! I only meant that it felt a little gatekeepy, was not intending to imply that you were. I share your worries.
