      Learning from Reddit, creating new community and attracting users to it is super hard. It almost would never work in practice.

        I think most people are interested in helping the fediverse grow and fragmentation here is a good thing. Also subscriber count doesn’t always mean activity and engagement.

        Reddit is much harder to clone communities because you can’t take the url and there’s no on-site function to meaningfully advertise. Because of the fediverse being defederated, you can spin up an alternative and advertise it much easier on here.
