User count has plateaued at about 420K

Active user count rose significantly between 2/24 37K to 3/24 51K

Hopefully users who signed up last year are coming back to use their accounts.

Maybe because they’re tired of ads on reddit?

Should we put together a collection and and buy an ad campaign on Reddit?

I can see it now:

“Ads suck. We’re ad-free forever. Join Lemmy.”

and

“He’ll never get us. Join Lemmy.” or “Don’t let him get you. Join Lemmy”

    What would be the point of trying to increase the user count, beyond “line goes up”?

        Niche communities really only have value when they grow organically. Trying to artificially inflate them won’t make them better.

      I find Lemmy is better with fewer users just like Reddit used to be.

      I kinda miss a few subs but they’ve been replaced by new things I discovered here.

      The websites can coexist and users can do as we please.
