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.

you get severely more punished on any community, or posts that are tankie, or /world politics. thats what i noticed, just the other day comment was removed a mod for rebuking a tankie comments, and saying how "harris: was not the sole cause of her own election loss. some people are not seeing the big picture but fixating on a 1 and only cause.

alot are also porn too, which puts people off, and having the tankies posts isnt good either.
