It should try to grow larger than in currently is, but not try to be a top website.
Trying to do the latter will involve clashing with online legal regulations, politicians, and compliance to a much greater extent than is required now.

I think you’re right. Having it as big as Reddit or other social media platforms wouldn’t be good. But I would like to have most communities for medium populated hobbies to have a popular enough comminity that I can not use Reddit for it. Right now, even some relatively popular communities have no members and no post generation.
