Lemmy.world grew from around 51000 total users the moment 3rd party reddit apps started to shut down on June 30 to 71000 total users at the time of this post (July 1). That's a 40% growth in about 12 hours!
Welcome new reddit expats!
This is my first comment on Lemmy. I'm still learning the ropes but about to nuke my 10 year old reddit account with probably at this point tens of thousands of comments - content for Reddit.
Man the servers got hit today didn't they!
The future is looking bright
I joined Reddit when Digg made some drastic mistakes. Not sure Lemmy will be the answer, here I am regardless.
I’m also a former Snoo
Using Wefwef myself and lemmy.zip...both have been snappy as I was accustomed to using Apollo.
You can really tell, as posts that used to have 1-2 comments now have 4-5. It's nice chatting with y'all
It’s weirdly exciting to have a fresh start on a new platform. Hoping to see those numbers continue to grow!
What app are you guys using for Lemmy now ? I'm on Jerboa . I find it laggy while scrolling. What's a better alternative?
Liftoff for Android has been a solid alternative.
Connect for Lemmy is amazing.
There's also wefwef, which seems to be a clone of Apollo.
Popular Reddit apps like Sync and Boost are currently in the process of making Lemmy ports.
I just joined and so far I'm really liking it. Gonna have to figure out the new format these instances, but I'm up for it!
Holy shit
Still learning the ropes of it all. I'll try not to be just a lurker like I am ha.
Glad to see folks coming over here, definitely shaping up into a preferable alternative :)
Crazy!! I don't envy the admins lol, tho they're doing a fantastic job in keeping the server up.
