Morning all, Just a quick update to say I'm making good progress with the development and we just hit 24k email signups!

The ui code can be reused so a lot of the polish can be ported over. I don't care for Lemmy to get as big as Reddit. I want it to get bigger than it is now but once you got a critical mass extra users don't make the community any better.

I disagree. The obscure subs is what I really loved about reddit. Subreddits based on niche hobbies have a much wider userbase from reddit to pull from while you won't have nearly as many people over here. Overall I'm looking forward to seeing Lemmy grow some more but I think lacking active discussion in some of the more niche communities will make it a little more boring for me than reddit was.
