That's cool, a new social media thing needs delusional people like you at first, otherwise it will never build up the critical mass of users it needs to actually get good. (:

There's a video that shows exactly this phenomenon in real time.

The most important people are the first followers. A website with a guy commenting alone is sad for the guy. A website with a couple people commenting is sad for whoever's not talking.

Thanks for sharing! Can’t remember seeing this before. Was a really nice watch!

Also I absolutely expected to see Rick Astley thanks to Reddit… 😂

I like the small feel Lemmy has right now, it feels more connected. I’m sure it’ll continue to grow and I’ll like that too, but I’m perfectly content with what we have now
