Some people might find the answer to be obvious (yes) but I’ve rarely found it so. In fact, this is a question I often find in the linux community (regarding linux going mainstream, not lemmy) and people are pretty split upon it.

On one hand, you may get benefits like more activity, more content, more people to interact with, a greater chance you’ll find someone to talk to on some specific subject.

On the other, you could run into an eternal September like reddit, where Lemmy would lose its culture, and have far more spam and moderation issues.

I don’t know, what do you think?

    Man I have no idea why my post suddenly became active after two years but I have to say in the context of the original post, lemmy is pretty much mainstream now.

    I think lemmy is currently tainted by the whole “I just moved from reddit everyone!!” mood right now, it’ll take a few months to develop its own culture. Assuming it can withstand eternal september.
