My above examples show that Niche communities if they are created in Lemmy will likely be completely different in composition from Reddit it took months for R/Threads to gain 200+users for example would have been longer if the invite option wasn’t there more like 50-120. This is the reality when niche communities are created on Lemmy they are going to be totally different from the niche subreddits.(spent months treating it like a Threads archive before the subreddit gained popularity as a Threads discussion forum at 50 members and consistently growing even b4 I sent the invites)

Except in my community no one joined the lemming and then when I polled them on participation in the strike they voted to reopen https://lemmy.ml/post/1328516 https://www.reddit.com/r/Threads1984/comments/14cw78l/rthreads_is_both_reopened_and_committed_to_the/

Trying to gradually Normalize Lemmy and convince them of the need to prepare For spezpocalypse and prepare Spez shelters that will ensure the survival of R/Threads1984 and which they can flee to when IPO begins to hit With Lemmy it is more then likely I will have to build the living community from scratch with the Lemming or Squabbles giving refuge to those seeking Spez shelters

It is strange that they neither banned Lemmymigration or Reddit alternatives
