Should Lemmy buy ads on Reddit? (fedidb.org)

User count has plateaued at about 420K

Active user count rose significantly between 2/24 37K to 3/24 51K

Hopefully users who signed up last year are coming back to use their accounts.

Maybe because they're tired of ads on reddit?

Should we put together a collection and and buy an ad campaign on Reddit?

I can see it now:

"Ads suck. We're ad-free forever. Join Lemmy."

and

"He'll never get us. Join Lemmy." or "Don't let him get you. Join Lemmy"

Ive been noticing some strange things about the lemmy numbers on fedidb. It seems to go up/down quite a bit. https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy

Nothing nefarious, but:

  1. hexbear seems to be counted twice for some reason.www.hexbear AND hexbear.com
  2. lemmy.ml claims to have 52.7k users but fedidb states 2093?
  3. lemmy.world looks correct in everything.

Lemmy: first 3 pages top servers are spam (fedidb.org)

On FediDB the total user number for Lemmy has now reached 2,710,730.

"Top" servers first 3 pages are full with spam account:

It is clear these instances are filled with "idle" spam accounts since the MAU (Montly Active Users) and Status Count does not come anywhere close to the total users per those instances.

If anyone knows a solution for these admins to remove the spam accounts please let me know in the comments!

Let's hope v0.18.1 of Lemmy releases soon with the captcha added again since we do need it..
