I’ve been one of the people saying “we don’t need more users. we need quality over quantity” and i was wrong.
the way it’s going, lemmy needs active users who post content sothat the network stays relevant. networks like the fediverse benefit from network effects and that means that if we have more users, that improves the value and quality of the fediverse overall.
So please, everyone, when you can, make advertisement for the fediverse in your personal area. Go talk to friends, make attractive stickers and put them everywhere, stuff like that. We would all benefit from it.

I’ll do my best! Luckily, Lemmy still has a healthy community though
This, It is just big enough to be useful and reach specific niches. We do not need to be a massive giant monolith which will get flooded with corporate trolls, russian/israeli troll farms, undisclosed sponsored content…
Let just have a small wacko community in peace
Our numbers might be small just because we are humans who care about, well, human interaction lol. So it’s not us to be unpopular, but big corpos to be overinflated by bots and shit
Thank you for your observation ✌️
Growth for growth sake is one of the most toxic concepts in modern society.
