And in the mean time?
Also "can" doesn't mean "will". And most, myself included, aren't going to be willing to just...hang around...for months or years or however long that takes to happen. And every time that happens, the timeline gets pushed to the right.
At some point it just won't happen.
Hah! Good one.
In my experience so far here, there's significantly better odds of running into trolls on Lemmy than Reddit.
Sure, in (some unspecified amount of) time, Lemmy might get more and varied and more populous communities, and it might see an overall improvement in the broad makeup of the overall user base...but for now it's less diverse, less busy, and less friendly than Reddit, and unfortunately, those deficiencies are self-perpetuating.
