Exactly, key focus should be on sustainability. As long as there are enough people to develop the platform, run instances, and post content, then Lemmy will be around indefinitely. There's absolutely no rush to grow in my opinion. A slow and steady ingress of users results in people adjusting to Lemmy norms, where a flood of users risks changing the culture entirely.
