It’s all bots…(probably)
Not that sure. Maybe a big chunk of it are, but there is a lot of people like me coming from reddit that signed yesterday, after doing some research and watching how things were here and on kbin.
Regarding the bots issues, new signups at lemmy.world were closed yesterday for several hours because of attempts to create spammy accounts. So maybe a mix of real accounts and spammy ones.
Yes it is. The top 20 fastest growing instances on https://fedidb.org/current-events/threadiverse could be suffering from bot signup. Bit of a bummer.
10,000 users and only 7 posts and a dozen comments: https://lemmy.podycust.co.uk/communities
I also signed up yesterday. This is my very first comment/post. This is all a bit new and ngl - slightly intimidating. I’ll go back to lurking and trying to get a better feel for the whole thing before I participate more.
Edit: To be fair, I wasn’t all that participatory on that OTHER site either. After 12 years, I walked away with (4,528·14,039) on my profile. So don’t expect much lol.
