we need more users
(discuss.tchncs.de)
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.

This is the central reason I choose not to engage with most posts. It's a toss up whether I'm talking to a rational human being or I happened to walk into the side of the antinatalist hyper accelerationist ML willing to die to defend the most obscure take about consent or something.
I would love a more healthy, less terminally online discourse on Lemmy.
100% agree. I tend to get my political comments downvoted a lot because I keep saying silly things like "capitalism and communism are both utopias that break due to human greed" or "anarchism won't solve the issue of people like Trump grabbing power".
Lots of weird people loving the power of magical words around here.
I mean the majority of campists and tankies on the fediverse are going to be from .ml.
You are also on .zip so you can also see lemmygrad and hexbear users.
My feed is making me so much happier, now that I do not have to waste time scrolling past content from all three on the triad.
Just ban the instances you don't like, don't succumb to FOMO
banning the instance doesn't ban the users coming into your instances.
Oh yeah, I believe that will be fixed in v1.0
I feel like we've been waiting on this one for a while now
