Why are you so obsessed with growth? Is it not OK if people discover the Fediverse without it being swarmed by new users? Is it the "number goes up" phenomenon?
It's having dealt with running communities in the past and knowing that once things get too slow the community starts to die. I believe strongly that stuff like this will be extremely important in the distant future internet.
