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.

Unfortunately, most people are too unintelligent and lazy to learn about the reasons to support reddit-alternatives, and move to them.

Wow. This is peak "I am so smart". You're not smart for downloading an app. Embarrassing

Lemmy is a website, not an app. I never download an app, but it appears that is what you did. It sounds like there's a knowledge deficit on your end, in addition to you being eager to apply labels to people to make yourself feel superior. You should definitely be embarrassed by your ignorant and childish comment that references a very immature and unintelligent subreddit.

I will reiterate that there are very good & important reasons to leave platforms like Reddit, Facebook, etc. Most people are too unintelligent, ignorant, and lazy to learn about them and move away from those platforms.

Everybody is stupid except me
