Some people might find the answer to be obvious (yes) but I’ve rarely found it so. In fact, this is a question I often find in the linux community (regarding linux going mainstream, not lemmy) and people are pretty split upon it.
On one hand, you may get benefits like more activity, more content, more people to interact with, a greater chance you’ll find someone to talk to on some specific subject.
On the other, you could run into an eternal September like reddit, where Lemmy would lose its culture, and have far more spam and moderation issues.
I don’t know, what do you think?
Lemmy isn’t ready for 100 million users, but I’d love to see more people here

At the moment we only have a few “scale” blockers, one of them being proper comment tree paging. Outside of that, there’s nothing stopping any instance from getting thousands of daily users.
