Start telling people now, over on reddit. BEFORE they start cracking down. That way, everyone will know, and the growth will happen even more rapidly.

      targeting loyal users

      There IS still a minimum number of them that you need, in order to truly make the community secure against rotting away, naturally.

      As I explained to someone else, if you come in here one day, and you realize that it’s been three weeks since you’ve seen a new post, you WILL eventually stop coming back to check. And then the few people who remain will also stop interacting with the platform. And it will die.

      I don’t know the exact number of people that the particular community (or the Fediverse, in general) needs to be permanently viable, but it’s somewhere between 20 and 100 times more people than we currently have. Maybe more.

      That’s not up for debate. It’s simply a cold, hard fact. You don’t have to like it, but it’s not optional.
