If you look at the communities tab and sort by new, more communities there have 0 posts than have more than 10 posts. It seems like people are just making communities for the sake of having something to control, without any interest of actually contributing. Often times the communities are opposing, so it's not as if the mod actually has knowledge or an interest in all 6 sides.

Is there any discussion behind the scenes on a way to curb this. or is this not a concern at this time because lemmy is still small?

People create communities on Lemmy as there is a demand for niche topics as many folks suggest creating the spaces you would like to see on your local instance.

It doesn’t help the health of the community by assuming the worst.
