Lemmy.world grew from around 51000 total users the moment 3rd party reddit apps started to shut down on June 30 to 71000 total users at the time of this post (July 1). That's a 40% growth in about 12 hours!

We definitely felt the ship groaning through all this. Thankfully the Ruud-er skillfully navigated through this, and the software update on top.

Anyways, welcome to Lemmy 17!

Lemmy 17? We're on 0.18.0, buddy. ๐Ÿ˜†

[โ€“] deweydecibel@lemmy.world 65 points 1 year ago (1 children)

0.18.1, guy

[โ€“] Limes@lemmy.world 41 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Iโ€™m not your guy, pal.

[โ€“] dimlo@lemmy.world 26 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Iโ€™m not your pal, mate.

[โ€“] CapnAssHolo@lemmy.world 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He's not your mate, budday.

[โ€“] tweeks@feddit.nl 16 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'm not your budday, muchacho.

[โ€“] nexguy@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I'm not your muchacho, partner

[โ€“] zav@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I am not your muchacho, amigo

[โ€“] ekZepp@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hopefully this doesn't interrupt the flow, but I definitely read this in Jamie Tartt's voice.

[โ€“] deweydecibel@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ahh, look at that reply string we started. It's feeling like home around here already.

[โ€“] adinfinitum@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago (3 children)

And my axe!

Edit: Thanks for the gold, kind stranger!

You get a lemon, that's the best I can do.

You took it too far

[โ€“] figaro@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Oh God lol

[โ€“] kabe@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

And not a moment too soon!

[โ€“] MicroWave@lemmy.world 50 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'm so glad the auto refresh bug on the main page is finally gone after the software update.

[โ€“] thegiddystitcher@lemm.ee 18 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Would it be too dramatic to say it's changed my life?

[โ€“] Grant_M@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 year ago

It made me whole again

[โ€“] FarLine99@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it was REALLY weird bug!
