MODERATORS
But quantity and quality are linked. If only, say, 0.1% of people will post high quality content, that means you need to attract a thousand people to get a high quality poster. You can't just put up a sign that says "high quality posters only". Plenty of quality posters also want an audience, so they'll go where the people are and leave if that audience isn't there.
This. I love reddit r/askhistorians and r/askphilosophy. But the vast fkn majority of people are not qualified to answer historical or philosophical questions. In these cases you need a lot of people on the site.
Ok, and I'll go where I like the most people I like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I left reddit for many reasons. I don't want most of those people here.
So, to be blunt, I don't care
So circling back then, if the high quality posters leave here, sure you'll leave with them and you'll be fine, but it still hurts the fediverse if they leave.
