Honestly, this is fine. This is a healthy community. If we had an exponential growth curve, the AI bots, clout-chasting influencers, marketers and data-mining scrapers would be all over these instances, and Lemmy frankly has very poor tools to deal with it.
There aren't the niche communities, I agree that that's regrettable. But we really do run into scaling problems.
There is a slow decline though. I don't want exponential growth, but growth is important imo at this stage
The big answer to that is creating value on the site itself, no?
That always helps, but you can hardly advertise services like this outside of here.
