I don’t disagree with your general point, but I remember that there were many people (on reddit, but also on lemmy) who said there would be lots of power-hungry redditors just waiting to take over and that the admins would thus have no trouble at all finding replacements.
Those were the same shit-stirrers, and they don’t care if they’re right or not as long as you can be wrong about something. They’re just waiting for that something and they’ll start hooting about how smart they are again.

Finding replacement is one thing. Finding good replacement an entirely different one.
Yup. The real test will be how these communities function in 6 months, since the effect probably won’t show until then.

It’s never a good idea to set yourself up to be disappointed in humans because you’re gonna be disappointed lol
