Part of me thinks the rapid growth is over and that user retention is the new struggle; but part of me holds out hope that the reddit api finally dying will push over yet another wave of users
One worry I have is the opposite scale. Active user growth have been pretty linear so far, but the network effect is pushing user activity growth at a higher rate.
But there is still under 100 kbin servers.
If there is a burst of new users and post activity after the API change, will the system be able to scale up fast enough to cope?

It’s still a steady growth, around 2000 more active users on Lemmy + kbin every day:
