Yeah, I imagine that's the equilibrium that the Lemmy Fediverse kind of lands on. At least for subs with more technical mods. I do wonder if this is sufficiently complex that Lemmy, and the Fediverse, in general, stays fairly niche as most users won't consider that super amazing user experience. But, to me, that's kind of the interesting and fun part -- what happens next in the Fediverse experiment.
In my case I am the sole mod, and pretty much 99.99% of the time the only person posting content. Plenty of people subscribed, and they are very active with comments, but it's a small sub and very niche to begin with. So moving to a niche platform sounds like the right thing to do at the moment. I have spoken with the person running the node I am on and he is cool with me moving it there. But if things start having issues, like I am not comfortable with the direction that node is taking, I will start looking into starting my own up, and just keeping it simple and small. I might just spin up a new server here to see what I can come up with, but there's a lot to it, and spare time lately just isn't there.
