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.

    So saying something without much effort under a post wothout comments actually helps that post to become more populated?

      As long as it’s relevant, yes.

      If you just posted say “I agree” or “Totally this” I don’t think that would drive any further engagement.
