I completely agree with your text. But to answer your question, I'm pretty sure that the majority of people here (including myself) are pretty much done trying to convert people.
Others are going to make their own decisions. Anyone who truly cares could have and would have already found their way here.
If it comes up somewhere, of course I'm going to tell people about Lemmy. But I'm not going out of my way and spending a bunch of time with the sole goal to get people to go here. I'm not and don't want to be a missionary for the Lemmy religion. If I'd do that with all the things in life where I think people are doing the wrong thing, I'd have no time anymore to actually enjoy life.
