I wouldn't read too much into it, especially if explicit chapo.chat mentions seem to be coming through just fine. Suvivorship bias being what it is though, you might want to start including the full name as a test when you post adverts.
I wouldn't do adverts at all though, but that's just me.
The adverts will continue until the libs learn. Either way they've been extremely useful in signalling to the socialist community on reddit that TRCM is a space for them. The discussions there shunted leftward by a huge margin in just a couple of weeks of ideological brute force, stickying propaganda and banning the shit out of everyone that complains has been highly effective with only a very marginal reduction in activity and no effect whatsoever on the position the subreddit reaches on /r/all.
If I ever manage to get into a sub with 500k+ or even any of the subs with 1m+ subscribers they will become mass radicalisation weapons.
No I mean I'm huge lib the issue isn't with bringing libs here, the issue is that concerted advertising (as opposed to organic word of mouth) implies that people are taking this site seriously, which makes it undesirable.
I recall having seen Raddle adverts back in the day.
I don't think that's an issue among the kind of soft left trcm has. They're bernie and aoc people at best not the hardened 90s kids with nihilist attitudes that immediately drop anything whenever other people think they're popular or being taken seriously. I agree with that attitude to harder leftist spaces though.
