According to https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/dailystats

Lemmy has ~67,500 daily active users over the past two weeks (it did peak at around 72,000)

How do you feel about the activity in your communities?

Do you think it will take another 'event' on some other website for more growth, or do you think Lemmy can grow naturally from here?

Or are you fine with the current activity and don't necessarily see the need for more users at this time?

I quite like it not being as busy. Everything feels a bit calmer.

anytime I saw a thread on reddit with 1,000+ comments I didn't even bother to add my own view

I do like how pretty much any thread here on the fediverse is small enough that I feel like I can make a comment and participate

It’s not about being busy, it’s about being used.

Most subs are dead or just one person posting content trying to kick it off. We need more people for the niche communities to survive and thrive:

I think it'll come with time. As Lemmy (the software) and its userbase matures, the situation will be better for smaller communities.
