Well, the new user bump has passed!

Now it's a matter of sustaining and slow growth. Hopefully. Best thing you can do to see Lemmy succeed is participate: comment, post, doomscroll All+Top Hou ;)
It'll take a while for some of the smaller communities to get critical mass. And that's okay, probably. Critical mass is here for the larger topics already. I'll do my best to help :)
Partly maybe. I remember when I first joined reddit though. It was well right around 2013 when Facebook was really booming. I was completely disgusted with social media at that point. Reddit was like a whole new world for me with an entire culture and language to learn. It all clicked with me and I felt like I fit in and belonged. Watching it burn this year has been difficult.
