I’ve seen Lemmy contend grow day by day, one month ago I needed to change sorting from active/hot to new posts, s it show posts from today.

Now every time I see posts from less an hour with changing from hot, and more people commenting (and an lot of cat pictures).

I’m where since 2021, and you could visit lemmy after a week and see the same posts, now feels that people is posting more and engaging more.
You don’t need to “fight for attention”, is you post someone will upvote or comment.

Lemmy stills small compared to other platforms, but more friendly and civilized.

    Seems to me like we are close to hitting some kind of critical mass. It’s been amazing seeing things shift from 1-2 posts getting big threads and 100+ upvotes per day to seeing thousands of those. Also seeing over 100 comments on posts created 30 minutes ago has been neat

    I’ve been here since the Reddit strike and things seem to continue to get better. Less errors, more posts in hot.
