Fediverse

It is very clear that new content per day has been steadily increasing the past 14 days.

Lemmy is no longer just promising, it is already good. With signs of getting even better.

With more active users, more niche communities should soon be able to do fine too.

Even if you do nothing else, make sure to upvote content and comments, and subscribe to communities. Bringing content over from reddit (or even just googling stuff) to the new applicable community would be extra helpful (a lot of empty communities at the moment).

Things keep looking better here, so I'm optimistic about lemmy.

Oh so lurkers aren't counted as active? That's even promising since many users on any site never comment or post.

I've been mostly a lurker on Reddit for the past 10 years but something about Lemmy just makes me want to engage in the community more than reddit ever has. Also it's incredibly impressive how quickly lemmy improved over the last weeks.

There will probably be another bump on July 1st, and probably more to come as Reddit makes more horrible decisions going forward.

100% honestly, I'm not married to the whole concept of the Fediverse - I think it's interesting and solves some problems plaguing modern social media, but has other issues of its own - but Lemmy has, overall, put out a good showing in the various instances' content so far. So here I am with an account and actively posting. Looking forward to continued growth!

So active users doesn't include users who are only browsing/voting on posts? If so that's even more impressive.

I'm here to boost that active user number. Hoping this takes off.

The site has felt way more usable in the last week, too. Haven't had much time to contribute myself, but I was browsing Active last night and thought to myself "hey, this feels just like the Reddit I know and love"

Once the niche communities take the plunge, its endgame for Reddit

Does this comment make me active now?

I think it shows that the great migration from Reddit is actually happening. After the 1st of July, we can expect to see Lemmy growing even more since the changes on Reddit are gonna be in full effect.

This feels great. The posts right now seem a lot more genuine compared to reddit lately. Keep it up!

And with all the apps pooping every 3 days it's getting even better!

I just signed up. Coming from reddit. Hopefully this is a good alternative.

+1-I'm doing my part

I've definitely noticed the uptick in the number of communities and new posts. Exciting times.

Signed up like 15 minutes ago, count me in

As a Reddit user for over a decade that got perma-banned for reporting repost bots and blatant misinfo

Glad to see new site where I can actually be involved.

Commenting so I am active.

Fediverse social seem a thousand percent more chill and make me 100 percent less stressed and depressed than non fediverse social.

Just realised I have not replied to anything yet, so using this thread to check it works.

I've just registered, read this last night and had to comment just to be a part of it. Happy to find a really good alternative.

Hope Lemmy grows at a steady pace so the resources can keep up. It's amazing it's handeling this amount of Traffic already.

Found my way here as part of the Grand Reddit Migration. Applying for refugee status please. (1st day on Lemmy, looks good gotta say)

It’s so exciting watching these new communities pop up on here!

Also, shoutout to all the devs working on cool Lemmy apps like Memmy, Mlem, Liftoff and wefwef. My week has been pretty entertaining checking these out!

Man, I knew I made the right decision to promote "Barbie" on this Lemonworld thing instead of reddit.

Deleted my Reddit account yesterday. Feels bad since I used Reddit in lieu of Facebook and Twitter, and it always seemed like a better place... but time moves on and so do I.

+1. Bye Reddit. Hello Lemmy! Struggling a bit to find my way around. Excited to find so many people willing to contribute to make Lemmy their new home. Feels good to be here.

I'm gonna comment so as to be counted as active.

i am the active user

Checking in (￣ー￣)ゞ

Previously uncounted lurker also commenting for the stats.

This is great news for Lemmy, let's hope that community grows even larger, as more users leave reddit.
