“The bigger a social platform gets the more synergy it spawns”

What the fuck kind of corporate bullshit have you been brainwashed into. Small groups have plenty of synergy lmao. You’re making up excuses to grow the platform.

Is some growth good yea. Is becoming as big as everyone else is a good idea? You fucking tell me. Who’s that big and had a user base that isn’t being poisoned or exploited. (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, etc)

Keeping a reasonable size, just like anything else in this life, is the correct option. Obsessive growth leads to greed and misery.

Lemmy has long existed before these redditors came over so trying to put your logic here from your stockholm syndrome ass isn’t gonna fly.
