Why do most communities have at least 3k subs? - Lemmy.world

It seems like most empty communities have 3k subs. This makes it much harder to find active communities.

Try branching out into other topics besides tech support maybe?
What like other support communities? I cannot find which is the most active emotional support community?!
not sure why that person commented so snarkily. I use this community but also [email protected] for memmy app shenanigans.
