Any growth that isn’t organic isn’t gonna last because it isn’t real. You can artificially inflate your participation statistics with artificial participation, but as soon as that ends, you’re going to return back to your base numbers. It’s extremely unlikely, in my opinion, that what you’re proposing would actually trigger organic growth on its own that would be of any meaningful or lasting quality.
cool, thanks!
I’d offer some suggestions re: adding search and sort, but I’m not familiar with the api (and I’m about to go to bed), but best of luck!
how tf is it missing the #2 lemmy instance but somehow has every other one? also, so search, so sort…
not to mention, there’s no link to the site here
edit: these are fixed!
good start!
don’t worry, X is still horrible
In 1785, the assembly of the Congress of the Confederation made New York City the national capital shortly after the war. New York was the last capital of the U.S. under the Articles of Confederation and the first capital under the Constitution of the United States.
nuke it from orbit. it’s the only way to be sure.
the skin flute would be even more popular!
good job, and well done! this, of course, will require constant vigilance, not merely one single effort. hopefully, a common protocol can be developed - perhaps a set of maintenance tools for instance admins - to help manage large numbers of inactive and otherwise suspicious accounts, especially making it easier and more straightforward for those instance owners with less experience managing large user databases.
in the meantime, perhaps it would be useful to create more extensive documentation and guides for instance admins on the subject?
iced milk is okay as long as you drink it before the ice melts. then, ew.
or you can blend it, then it’s a milk smoothie!
it was different. Digg underwent a major site overhaul and redesign that the users universally hated, and most everyone migrated to reddit almost overnight. the changes were rumored to be coming for a couple of months, so the migration had already started slowly over that time, but once Digg version 4.0 was implemented, a virtual tidal wave of users rushed over to reddit all at once.
Reddit had already existed for a few years by that point and already had an existing user base and culture, similar to lemmy now. Unlike the Digg —> reddit exodus, however, reddit is. now many times the size that digg ever was and is dying a slow, ugly death. while lemmy is experiencing surges in users, it’s happening in several smaller waves rather than all at once as users explore several available alternatives, possibly staying on reddit and dealing with the crappy experience, or even going without it at all, having given up on social media altogether.
btw, digg is still around, it’s just nothing like what it used to be.
I swear, I saw this exact post on reddit 18 years ago
you haven’t been doing that for the last month?
While the title may be clever, Threads is an Instagram creation, not one of Facebook, and while both are products of Meta, Facebook content (and even Instagram content) and Lemmy content would never co-mingle.
I’m not saying you shouldn’t try, and maybe I’m wrong. I’ve seen people try this on reddit and have it not work, but maybe lemmy is different. also, perhaps it depends on the community/subject matter itself?
best of luck!
