Why are people so interested in mass adoption of things like fediverse? (lemmy.world)

Don't get me wrong I'm a big fan but it seems like the fediverse could theoretically exist with like 5 users whereas a commercial company needs users for revenue. It feels like we are using the masters tools to try to destroy the masters house

I think there are people coming from Reddit that miss the mindless scrolling content that only hundreds of thousands of users can create.

I did this all the time on Reddit, hours and hours of lurking, looking at memes and reading bullshit stories. Just endless content.

I don't have that here, and I like it. I do miss it, but I'm not desperate for Lemmy to drop in and replace it.
