This feels great. The posts right now seem a lot more genuine compared to reddit lately. Keep it up!
Image Transcription: Line Graph
[A line graph is shown depicting the number of users on Lemmy over one month’s time. The horizontal axis lists the date of each reading, with an interval shown for every day. The earliest date begins at ‘2023-05-28’ and the most recent date is given as ‘2023-06-26’. The vertical axis measures the number of users, with intervals marked at every 5,000 users, with an upper limit of 50,000 users. There is a green trend like and a blue trend line graphed from plot points at every horizontal interval. The green line is labelled ‘Active users monthly’ shows increase over time. The line remains flat at approximately 1,000 users from the ‘05-28’ date mark to the ‘05-31’ mark, then begins to gradually increase to approximately 10,000 users, starting to show a trend similar to the beginning of an exponential growth curve. At the ‘06-11’ date mark, the line begins increasing at a relatively steady rate, with the last marked date showing just over 45,000 users. There are two points in which the line shows an apparent indication of levelling off in user count, before then showing a sudden increase in users again, with neither of these points significantly impacting the overall upward trend. These points are at the dates ‘06-16’ and ‘06-21’. The second graphed line, the blue line, is labelled ‘Active Users Half year’ and starts at approximately 3,000 users, but follows an almost identical trend shape as the green line as it increases approximately parallel to it. The blue line ends at around 48,000 users at the final graphed point.]

I’m gonna comment so as to be counted as active.
Brilliant.
Even if that continues the next 5 days in a row. that’s no big deal for reddit. it’s barely a fraction of a percent of reddits userbase. Spez couldn’t care less i thinks. the only thing that would probably hurt reddit is if everybody deletes all their conten and accounts. and it would need to be a much larger scale. nothing will change. never underestimate the lazynes and unwillingness to change of people.
As long as there’s a vibrant community outside of reddit, it totally helps to break that reddit addiction. Ever since I joined Lemmy, I barely even bother with reddit anymore.
Previously uncounted lurker also commenting for the stats.
I’ve been here around a week, came over from Reddit of course. I’m still hanging around over there, because I enjoy watching dumpster fires, but I’ve been pretty active voting and commenting here.
Found my way here as part of the Grand Reddit Migration. Applying for refugee status please. (1st day on Lemmy, looks good gotta say)
Your application looks good; you just need to write an ending for the following sentence: " Fuck …"
Fuck that cretinous spez and his money-grabbing lobotomy business plan.
Double edged sword as it is, I’ll probably prefer Lemmy anyway…
Can you hold in a poo for three days?
Well that’s an ask. Once a year can’t be that bad. Can it?
We’ve already had a legendary post occur but I don’t have a ink to the source. Can anyone help out?
There you go, I believe, this is the one 🙂
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.
I already didn’t read past the first few hundred comments on reddit- Lemmy already feels almost as good to use, way more than mastodon did coming from Twitter.
Mastodon is simply not as good. Lemmy achieves its objectives very cleanly and seems to leverage ActivityPub the best in the fediverse by far.
Giving this place a shot… Can’t be worse than Reddit
It’ll definitely be better than Reddit. Reddit has honestly gotten pretty terrible in the last few years. Fediverse may have its flaws but it’s still better than what Reddit has become (and ultimately what Reddit’s for-profit wannabes will become).
Just realised I have not replied to anything yet, so using this thread to check it works.
Same here.
Hello fellow lemmitors?
Lemmites? Make Ned Ludd proud.

Hello, I see you 👁️👄👁️

DEJAVU! I’ve been on this place before!
I’m happy to be here. Lemmy seems like a good place so far. I’m not sure if it will take off in the long term (I think a lot of people don’t “get” the whole federated thing, just like with Mastodon), but I’m keeping my fingers crossed.
Mastodon has gotten really good at obfuscating the federation away in normal use, Lemmy and Kbin are picking up those tricks a lot faster.
For example, v18 made linking communities possible by just typing the name, and Lemmy then handles making it a working link on each instance.
The trickiest part will be having users pick an instance, but once past that hurdle, the federation aspect doesn’t need to be a complicating factor.

Yep, that’s the thing. When Mastodon was hot for a while, most complaints I saw were about people not getting that they can pick almost whichever instance and/or having trouble deciding because they didn’t fully understand that it usually matters very little.
Does this comment make me active now?
Not sure, let’s rise the odds together 👍
I’ll contribute some activity, as well 🙂
I’m here to boost that active user number. Hoping this takes off.
Count me in. Now I can resume lurking.
Huzzah!
You have my sword!
And you have my bow!
You guys have swords?
One does not simply have sword in osgiliath
You have my po-tay-toes!
And MY AXE
