They weren't born large. Reddit was seeded with content by the developers before the users came. The secret to growing a community is to grow a community. It all has to start somewhere and frankly, fediverse is starting with a much stronger kick start than digg and Reddit ever had.

That makes me wonder how people would feel about copying content from other platforms using bots in order to boost some communities. Those that have <1k subscribers could use some seeding.
