Heads up: Lemmy will either get less popular or more popular over time. Neither is ideal.

And while it never feels like it when you say it, but these are [going to be] the good ol’ days.

Well that’s pretty much every platform’s lifecycle. Starts small, reaches a sweet spot and either implodes or sucks ass.

I was on Digg, I had a MySpace page, I was an early Twitter user, I had a Reddit account… who knows how long I’ll be on here. But for now, I’m happy to be one of the users on the upswing.
