For sure, I'm a big fan of the effort you're making here!

There's just a huge difference between reaching out to a few users and communities telling them there is a better alternative, and a significant portion of the Reddit hive mind suddenly deciding that they want to give Lemmy a try. So as frustrated I am to see people dream about Digg, I'm also kinda cool with it.

According to Fediverse observer, Lemmy has grown by 7400 active monthly users this month (since March 1). That's almost 300 users per day, compared to very little growth the months before. The users who joined the last 25 days make up 13.5% of all our active users. Pretty cool.
