When I joined, just a few days ago, the number of users at lemmy.ca had just climbed above a thousand. I see that now it’s well over two thousand.

That’s quite the growth!

    I think for more niche communities we need more people. My interest in a Reddit like community is not technology, memes and world news. It is all my very niche hobbies.

      and if you noticed how those niche communities formed … they started out with two or three people that just liked to talk about stuff they liked, then it took months and years to gather and create a whole community of dedicated followers and contributors.

      give it time, everyone here has just arrived, we’ve dusted off the shelves, swept the floors and we’re still prettying up the place
