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.

    It’s addictive. It’s not like I haven’t steeped in it either.

    This is what I keep hammering; people can’t help themselves, especially under stress. Perverse engagement incentives need to be fixed structurally to give us a fighting chance, otherwise Lemmy/Piefed will end up like Voat and all the other Reddit clones.
