Lemmy active users down, comments steady and posts up

Presumably this is due to recent actions regarding adblockers over at Youtube....

With today’s news of Letterboxd being acquired by an investment company, I got to wondering if I should start weaning my movie obsession off of there and onto something more open before the inevitable enshittification begins. I did a cursory search and found nothing promising, but figured the braintrust here might know...
EDIT: Thank you for all the great responses! I agree that a forced implementation is no longer the way to go. I’ve left the post as is, aside from this comment, in case anyone wanted to reference part of it. At this point, I think implementation 1 (Sincere Request) is the way to go if anything....
Hello folks...
It can be Lemmy, Mastodon, Peertube, anything Fediverse-related!
I prefer good faith discussions please. I love the Fediverse and love what it can be long term. The problem is that parts of the culture want nothing to do with financial aspect. Many are opposed to ads, memberships, sponsorships etc The “small instances” response does nothing to positively contribute to the conversation....
I was shocked to see that there are no English-language Mobilizon servers. It seems like it may be an ideal secondary service for certain existing fediverse communities and was wondering if anybody here had considered it....
Hi, Lemmy.ninja has been unaccessible since yesterday. Anyone know why?

I’ve been seeing a lot of users from alien.top commenting in various threads (mainly sports) lately. They only caught my attention because they are all flagged as bots and I typically manually block most bots (not all because there are some I like). For every one of them their entire post history consists of 1-2 comments or...
With Alphabet taking a hard stance against adblockers I’m wondering if devs are starting to put some focus on PeerTube? It could use some TLC. I feel like it’s a sleeping giant of the Fediverse.
I’ve posted before about my fediverser project, and I am now looking to see who is interested in participating....
… and so now, when I see many successive posts made (in one single community) by robots, I just donwvote the whole lot....
A friend decided to give it a try and so I recommended getting the app, but they got stuck when trying to make an account since they kept getting...
Mods can you please make a feature so that the upvote given to a crosspost goes to , both the crossposted post , and the orignal post?...
When I used to blog 10+ years ago I had a killer list of WordPress blogs I followed but as time went on I sort of gave up on the whole blogging thing and forgot about most of them. Now that WP is part of the fediverse I’m curious, what are some of your favorites?
Hello all, I have been dipping in and out of the Fediverse for years now and am loving where the technology is now....
Man, I was all on board with this idea. Federated instances made so much sense to me. But it’s tankies all the way down, and it’s just not worth my time anymore. Hell, if the largest instance bans you seconds after you call out a tankie mod, where can you escape? Great idea, terrible execution. Everyone wants lemmy to grow,...
I just realised, I can’t post anything on lemmy.ml...
*Not a major issue - just curious...
