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!
Welcome new reddit expats!
I am currently writing some more instance stats graphs on lemmyverse: https://lemmyverse.net/instance/lemmy.world/user-growth
You can clearly see the growth! More to come :D
Glad to be here!
Someone should post this in r/UpliftingNews
Slightly off-topic: Can you guys access lemm.ee? It looks all messed up on my end.. @sunaurus@lemm.ee
I have slowly been trying to redo my frontpage here and so far with all those migration links it's been a breeze
That’s intense.
Glad to be here and be a part of the community! It's unfortunate Reddit is going the way of Digg, but definitely looking forward to watching Lemmy grow and develop.
Man the servers got hit today didn't they!
The future is looking bright
I joined Reddit when Digg made some drastic mistakes. Not sure Lemmy will be the answer, here I am regardless.
I’m also a former Snoo
It's me! I'm one of the new joiners! I've been enjoying the content and discussion here in the last day since I created my profile here. I have noticed a bit of lag and issues with things loading. I know there was a software update and obviously a sudden influx of new users. As frustrating as it was to have to move apps and communitie and despite the obvious growing pains, I have been happy to find a new community that is friendly and vibrant as this one!
Very happy to see that such a strong migration is actually happening.
This probably happened with every Lemmy server out there.
I was having timeout issues with most that I tried to use.
Today everything seems normal.
And yet fediverse observer is showing declining user count, while server count, comments and posts are growing steadily.
