Lemmy.world grew from about 51k users when third-party reddit apps started to shut down to about 84.8k users at the time of this post.
Definitely felt some growing pains in the past few days, but it’s great to see the platform more active now that things have become more stable.
So, welcome reddit expats!
What happens if lemmy.world or any other instance goes down without notice? Then there’d be a void of communities for a while right, or do other instances keep backups of some sort? Thinking about this now that .world gets tons of attention.
