Is Lemmy actually growing? (lemmy.world)

Per the title, is Lemmy actually growing, or will it stagnate and fade into obscurity like many other similar discussion boards?

Doesnt work. They ban your ip, MAC address, email, everything. They even have a tool that flags people that may be doing ban evasion based on behavior and communities that are joined by said account. You could get around it but it’s way too much effort just to use reddit.

They can't ban a MAC address. They don't have any way to find it.

Ah well I’m just parroting what I’ve read. I’m only superficially familiar with most tech stuff. I do know that the ban at least applies to the device, email and ip address for sure.
