Wow, since my post yesterday, lemmy.world has added 2000+ new users to cross the 30000 user mark! Just think, it was only at 20k three days ago. Crazy growth.

With that, lemmy.world is the clear second largest lemmy instance and has left the third largest instance beehaw.org’s 12k in the dust. It’s now within 6000 users to overtake the #1 spot from lemmy.ml (their registration is closed). Exciting to see this growth!

What are some of your favorite communities on lemmy.world so far?

And we’re not stopping until we are the Lemmy

That's cool but also terrifying.

How many are active users and not alts?

I don't know why someone would be suspicious of you just for asking this question, but it's probably impossible to know that with any accuracy without intolerable user data leaks.

That's great, although I'd like to see some others up there as well to keep the fediverse healthy.

Does anybody know what the hardware specs are that lemmy.world runs on? It would be nice to get an idea of the hardware requirements to scale up that far.
