For those that weren't there for the mastadon growth, it came is several waves. the reddit blackout begins tomorrow 6/12. Are the Lemmy sysadmins expecting a second wave of growth? If so how big?

Agreed, it's just getting started.

I predict a very small number sticking around though. Layouts and instances are a little too unintuitive.

Reddit was unintuitive to start as well, and had a pretty rough UI in its starting years but those are just growing pains and hopefully we will see the same with Lemmy as well.

We should roll out a new v4 UI for them
