>but the influx of users has always been because of kolyma-era projects
- Vidlii influx was only tangentially related to kuz/kolyma since it was actually the result of kaguya pinning my April Fools Heyuri-tan dreaming OC to their front page (this was right after kuz stepped down)
- New Years 2023 influx was cuz a random fag spammed Heyuri ads on every website evar (and it was nearly squandered by kuz shenanigans following it)
- Spacehey influx had little to do with anyone on Heyuri - it was mainly the result of a certain 12yo 4chan fangirl finding us and telling her Spacehey friends about us
- Recent 4chan & 4/f/ influx happened cuz 4chan went offline for 2 weeks + they killed /f/

We haven't had any other sudden large influxes besides the lolico/kuz-era ones I mentioned before. If ur really stretching, there've been a few minor ones relating to various international imageboards (one of which is administered by kaguya)

>But since his ascension no new major efforts have been made to expand heyuris usership rapidly.
LIES - in fact kaguya has made many efforts in reaching out to various communities, particularly Japanese sites. And don't forget that kuz wasn't buying up sites to promote Heyuri - in fact Heyuri got increasingly neglected the more kuz focused on those other sites
