Blahaj Lemmy User Growth
(self.main)
This is the growth of our lemmy instance, without any advertising or spruiking. It was spun up as a test more than anything else, but it seems that it has become more than that!
Even though the graph shows the growth spike from April to June, in reality it's even more stark than that. We have gone from 20 users to 100 users in a week!
We'll be spinning up a kbin instance soon too, and when we do, we might shut down registration on the lemmy instance. We'll keep them up for now though, given the load on lemmy.ml from reddit migrations

At the moment there isn't much to do. We're ok absorbing the costs of our instances for now. We run a pretty heavily customised fork of Calckey on blahaj.zone, but our lemmy instance is almost (but not quite) straight out of the box.
Keep on chatting, and keep the community vibrant sounds like a non answer, but still, do that :)
