Who says any instances need to grow?
I said 'afloat', and was specific about larger instances.
Why should there be larger instances?
There are currently and there inevitably will be. Instances like Lemmy.ml, Lemmy,world, beehaw.org are already large.
Okay and once those grow to the point where they need to monitize to stay afloat people will just switch to other instances
