Right now we’re talking 0.0057% of the monthly active users. Lemmy likes to hype itself up a lot, but the market share is incredibly tiny, and likely will be for years to come. As a platform Lemmy would be incapable of handling that kind of scale, from both a software, design, hosting, logistics, cost, moderation, and community perspective.
I’ll be here, but let’s check in each year on it. I’m guessing it will be a few before we either see accelerating growth, or Lemmy is upset by better designed federated social media software, or it’ll just be fragmented between dozens of competing platforms.
