As a result, our instance https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/ got 625 new user registrations (of which 536 where accepted) in the past 24 hours! And the registrations are not abating even now. We still get like 10 new ones per hour!

I suspect this is probably the largest advertisement, for lemmy specifically, since the main reddit blackouts 1.5 years ago.

Have your own instances also seen an influx of new users?

I was there. In the ancient times.

Thank you for keeping Lemmy lore alive, you're doing god's work.

You were there when the ancient texts were written, but remember, some of us were there when the alphabet was conceived.
