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"

No. You don't want people's first exposure to the fediverse to be something annoying.

Also, anyone with a modicum of understanding is already blocking ads. Do we really want the dregs of the internet that don't do so?
