I appreciate that. I'm starting to understand that while I have been hoarding these links like a dragon, most folks are not aware that this is a thing at all. That said, the community is still fairly small and following the 90-9-1 rule we should only expect to have 3 regular posters anyway. I really wish authorized fetch was working for Lemmy as I feel like some crossover with the academic circles of Mastodon would be a gamechanger for growth. This post was actually a repost so that I could pin it on my new Mastodon account and I think we saw substantial subscriber growth from it. Unfortunately, on some instances the user can follow but will not see future posts.
