Haha. This reminds me of something. Back in... I wanna say 1998 -- I was a contributor to KDE (open source software project). We collaborated over email officially, and IRC unofficially -- on openprojects.net. when we released version 2.0, the operator of the openprojects.net server (the equivalent of @[email protected] (lilo) sent a site wide message across the network inviting everyone to #kde for a release party. Our small channel went from 30 to 50 to 100 users abruptly, and we had a fun time. Years later, the channel would idle well above 400 users and no one would say anything for hours.

Right now Lemmy feels like that one day in 1998 and I can't stop smiling about it somehow. :)
