Some thoughts on that, Reddit has half a billion monthly active users. Lemmy has about 50k monthly active users. That’s .01% or one ten thousandth. We won’t be displacing Reddit anytime soon, but then we don’t want to. That’s the main problem with Reddit, it’s too damn big and too damn corporate. The main thing is Lemmy sees enough growth to stay relevant and viable. It doesn’t have to compete with anyone.
I recognized the tug part right off. That’s a lot of custom bodywork. These days they just CG stuff like that. Back then they actually had to make props. Sometimes they did a pretty poor job, but that one is high end. I’m actually old enough to have seen that show, but I don’t remember ever watching it.
