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.

Don’t let Cowbee propagandise you, that’s what he’s known for, even Tankies celebrate him for it.
He doesn’t argue in good faith, either, don’t believe such nonsense. Just have a look at all the other community posts about his extremism, bigotry and hatred. He’s a Tankie full and through and one of the major reasons why Lemmy is destined to fail.
For example, I humbly ask you to challenge Cowbee on his views of North Korea and Putin. You’ll find he is openly supportive of both.
I know @Cowbee@lemmy.ml doesn’t argue in good faith. You’re not arguing in good faith either. If you wanna internet argument fight the dude, I just pinged him for you, but before you do I suggest both of you consider the words of mustache man: “Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not himself become a monster.”
Honestly I don’t think there’s such a thing as good faith when it comes to political discussions on the internet. I’m not going to argue with him either, I don’t consider it worthy of my time.
What’s good faith to you? To me, it’s admitting mistakes.
To me, good faith is the genuine will to understand and/or convey ideas fairly and honestly.
I agree, but I don’t think fairness or honesty really exists anymore. Or rather, there’s no incentive for people to engage in such.
