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.

Sure, there are a lot of bad-faith critiques going around. I do think that your point using me as an example doesn't really work if your example is out of context. The thing about propaganda is that anyone pushing a particular view is propagandizing, but that doesn't mean it's inherently misinformation. Identifying bias is important, as is developing media literacy to see where people are being less than truthful.
