you mean they should turn off the user-count-go-uppinator? but how would the fediverse grow like that?? /s
(sorry i just have opinions on large instances)
The nature of a site like reddit (and lemmy and all other alternatives) means a large userbase is necessary. Not at the expense of CSAM, but also everyone trying to gatekeep lemmy doesn't realise that we'll die a slow death unless the fediverse grows by at least 10-20x.
Doesn't have to be all on one instance though. Instances shouldn't grow beyond what they can admin/moderate
I swear, Lemmy users act like they are completely in favor of an instance of 40 users and a submission every other week. Seeing scale as inherently bad.
Lemmy will fucking roll over and die within the year.
