    I am fine with the place settling for a bit. It would suck if this place was as big as other sites are overnight. I want to watch this place grow over time

      Yeah, my main problem so far has been finding communities actually worth following/joining/contributing to.

      If suddenly tons of average people join, they won’t really find communities, they’ll deem that their analysis of Lemmy, and leave with tiny chances of a second chance. It’ll just boom and bust in it’s current state. Most people aren’t interested in starting or growing a small community.

      Meanwhile, if we stay at this size for a while, communities may form/grow, and as people trickle in, they’ll grow bit by bit.

    What’s with this meme format having repeated words at the end of the first line and beginning of the second. It happens so frequently it surely can’t just be inattention.

      Maybe it’s a reference to the phenomenon when a word repeated that way isn’t noticed, or an earlier meme that uses it?

      I think it’s a way of denoting satire. The opinion given, like the grammar used, is intentionally bad. I think it originates with r/okbuddyretard where many of the posts are created in ways that mimic how 12 year olds on the internet speak.
