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.

    This is something I think whatever lemmy 2.0 is going to be really needs to focus on.

    Just be a content aggregator for ALL of the fediverse. Everything. One feed.

    Or maybe more clever ways of integrating. But right now, we’re still relying on video mostly from YT (not peertube) and screenshots of things happening on mastodon. We need more connective tissue.
