From 3000 daily users to 41000 active daily users!
Hi! I’m a new arrival. I left Digg for Reddit back when and now I’ve left Reddit for Lemmy! I won’t be going back ‘irregardless’ and am very excited to see this community and the Fediverse at large progress through its growing stages! I would have left Reddit earlier and had been looking for an alternative for a few years now. I guess I owe Lifehacker a big thanks for the recommendation and the rest of you can hold them in your ire cuz here I am!
Just joined. I really hope this kicks off, because it would be sad to see reddit prosper after all the greedy nonsense.
You picked a good instance with lemmy.world because there’s a lot of local activity already. That should keep you busy until you want to start interacting with other lemmy instances.
It’s good to see. On June 30/July 1 we’re likely to see another big influx of users when the Reddit API changes go into effect and Apollo et al shut down.
Just got here using WefWef as a daily Apollo user. I’ll be browsing daily after June since Reddit is killing third party apps. I think a lot of people are in the same boat.
Surprising it’s gained this much traction, considering Reddit literally doesn’t allow this site to be linked on their platform (which is honestly so petty)
Explains why I don’t see lemmy links over there. spez did say he admires Elon, so that makes a lot of sense.
