But will there be enough to counterract the people who just use the app? That's the real question. No one doubts a move like this increases fediverse people. So did the API scurfuffle, yet people still regularly complain about the fediverse being unpopulated.
I've been on fedi since 2015—over a decade. I know it's gotten bigger. Yet, every year, for 10 years straight, are people who complain about how small the userbase is. I don't see this at all changing that.
