EDIT: Just crossed 26000!

Almost! At the time of this post, lemmy.world has a whopping 25733 users and is growing fast.

Since my last post yesterday, it has added 4000 new users, making it the clear second-largest lemmy instance out there. Also quickly catching up to lemmy.ml's 36000 (not taking new signups).

beehaw.org (3rd largest) sits at 12500 users, partly because of more restrictive registration requirements.

Exciting to see all this growth!

Hi I'm new here. Does it matter what instance I'm subscribed to? I don't know what the practical differences would really be from my experience?

I an new myself but I dont think it does. Only difference there might be is that some just lag more (lemmy.ml) due to so many users.

I'd be one of those users too if I could actually register here. the button just spins forever. Been like that for days now. :\

Same happened to me. It's either the username isn't available or the password is too long

You could email lemmy.world's admin:

A registration doesn’t need to be approved here, you just need to verify your e-mail. (Check spam…) If there’s any issue with that, mail us at info@lemmy.world so we can assist.

I was looking forward to ridding myself of my Reddit addiction. Now I'm here...

If you're having a hard time seeing all the columns on mobile, use "view as desktop" in your browser settings. It's the only way I can see all the columns. (Android / Opera)

Almost 30k, lemmy.world is quickly becoming the largest instance, insane.

Judging by the fact it takes me 3 minutes to submit a comment and 30 seconds for posts to refresh then yes

[-] WrenofDelpan@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Im pretty sure that Lemmy, even if it doesn't grow to eclipse Reddit, will have a nice little following of its own that makes it a suitable substitution
