  • The solution is to build up more attractive alternatives of those communities elsewhere, not endlessly campaign the existing users to just drop them.

    Agreed. Maybe I should try creating and managing a community some day. (hopefully this didn’t come off as sarcastic)

    The current fedidb stats, to me, state that 488 people is, colloquially speaking, nobody.

    This is a wildly misleading and unfair comparison. Let’s take the Trump verdict as an example. The most upvoted post about this had ~2700 upvotes. But that’s only 6% of the MAU! Is that “nobody”? Obviously not. 2k upvotes is a huge deal on a rather small community like Lemmy. How often do you see posts with more than 3k upvotes?

    ~500 upvotes is already a moderately large number of upvotes. You need to compare this number with how many upvotes a post typically gets.






  • Did you get a phone case with your pixel? I didn’t when I bought my pixel 6a.

    The phone case was a complimentary gift from the e-commerce platform I bought the phone from. Not from Google themselves. My guess is that they wanted to get rid of these 2023 H2 Limited Edition Pixel × Rhinoshield Phone Case Pixel 8 - Black that no one wanted to buy, so they decided to just give it away. Pretty thoughtful gift actually.
