Hello everyone, new user here. I’m liking the site so far, specially the technology communities.

One thing I noticed that there are far too many communities for a significantly low user base website. There are 1075 Communities as the right sidebar shows. I feel most of them are created to park community names only not for purpose of any discussion. IMO is not good to have so many communities at very early stage, restricting community creation till the userbase of the site has achieved an arbitrary number big enough to sustain such large number of communities is better.

    I don’t think it’s a big deal until Lemmy gets big enough that no one’s checking the All feed.

    Typically I share content based on “oh hey this is good, let’s share it, now what community fits?” I don’t need an active admin to be able to toss something under /c/architecture or whatever.
