I think somewhere between 1-4 million would be a good cross section of interests without a critical mass of users

I think somewhere between 1-4 million would be a good cross section

500K (for example) people talking in communities wouldn't be enough?

How did you derive the 1-4 million number?

Just a really quick estimate based on the size of the subreddits I once enjoyed that by their nature need to be larger. Things like /r/cfb, /r/nba, /r/FreeFolk
