    Reddit was like this in 2009, here’s a random thread from there to illustrate, 35 score, no comment votes. The years prior Reddit was even quieter despite having only one community they had to post to, before subreddits were a thing.

    Give it time, promote it on Reddit if you want to [email protected], tell your friends. As far as I know we are growing slowly, it will only blast up if Reddit does something extra henious again. Though the knee-high barrier of choosing a server and learning the etiquette will take a little time.

    I think it’s okay as is, it doesn’t have to be more popular, but if it does become more popular then I don’t mind that either.
