No, I don’t think it’s an issue. Lenny certainly doesn’t need most of Reddit to migrate. But if the number of users is a lot less, there will also be much less content. For me, the ideal scenario is to have a decent numbers of users, but nowhere close to Reddit’s (I’m almost totally sure that it won’t actually replace Reddit for the general public but I’m just hoping for enough users to make it a nice community with enough content).
That could be the case. But it can also go the other way lol, it could end up being a place where a smaller bunch of insane/bigoted/etc people get together.
Is that a huge issue, though? I always had a feeling that the 3rd party users might be more civil.

Yeah thats fair. I think k when something gets too big, then it becomes like less of a nicer place. E.g reddit. Twitter, Facebook.
