I think it's much less intimidating to new users now compared to when I joined last year. The barrier to entry has been reduced significantly.
There are tons of active communities now, mobile apps that work great (this is a big one), and many more tools to block content that you don't want to see.
there is also more diverse content than the crap that was on here six months ago.
when 50% of the frontpage is linux memes... you're not going to gain the interest of most new users. now it seems to be down to about 20%
Do I hear you say there's not enough linux memes? Let's fix that!
