    Correct. We don’t have need to be growing. 40k mau are nothing to scoff at and is bigger than most other online forums who can feel very busy even with 1000. So long as we’re getting as many users as we’re losing, we’re good. And the continuous enshittification of reddit will ensure there’s always people looking for a new home.

      We need somewhere to go online to get away from the handful of mega-corps that have taken over the internet. With the US now full-throating fascism that need is greater than ever.
