Effective reddit advertisement and discussion on r/degoogle, r/buyfromEU, and a Canadian subreddit (forgot the name) boosted piefed.social and piefed.ca primarily. I’d like to see more of this if people know viable subreddits, and help spread the load too across many servers. Currently piefed.social has about 50%+ of all piefed users. This is too much long-term.
Earlier it seemed like a surge in users of PieFed/Lemmy depended on Reddit fucking up somehow, this is the first time it appears to me as if it’s mostly a question of getting the word out there. Pretty cool.
Time to print flyers I guess.
Yeah, I think the best kind of growth would be slow, steady growth, giving servers and resources time to adjust.
usually when they start another round of banning, shadowbanning. or they increase thier censorship filters(deleting, words,posts,etc). a new account is pratically on thin eggshells easy to get banned, because reddit see it as potential bots(they also look at other metrics too)
