While that's true, but moving from the current 50k MAUs to say 250k would probably have a radical effect on more niche communities

50 to 250k a month would represent a population increase of over 4 times, so those sort of numbers would have a notable impact.

I expect those 200k extra to interact with already popular topics memes, politics and tech

Well yes, but not all of them will /only/ do that.
