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.

Well, you wouldn't come across hexbear or lemmygrad on pawb.social because it looks like your instance is defederated from them.
Cowbee definitely seems in a sense like a very civil apologist (although with all the trappings of contemporary campism and tankiesm) - and not the worst example by any means, but for every Cowbee there's a BrainInABox type user.
Lol I like BrainInABox better, and I completely disagree with their worldview.
All they do, quite literally, is hurl abuse.
Maybe I'm insensitive or just foolish but to me there's comedy in that.
Oh I agree, it's inherently absurd - and I'm surprised they haven't been banned from basically everywhere else outside of the trio instances (they have been banned from a lot of instances) - but to a lot of people the main issue ignoring Cowbees apologism is the hostility they encounter on there.
Well I guess you're right and there is a lot of hostility towards certain thoughts in most instances. Everyone holds something sacred I guess.
