Anyone have the numbers of today's new users for any of the kbin or Lemmy instances?
2.1k new kbin.social accounts made in the past 72 hours.
1.4k new lemmy.world accounts made in the past 72 hours.
Amazing! Long live the fediverse. Fuck Reddit!
Even better would be if they spread out over more instances instead ofself-centralising on a few 'flagship' instances. But no judgement, it's understandable; just keep in mind you can always move to another and connect with the same communities!
Open to suggestions chief. I know nothing about this brave new world.
Just check https://join-lemmy.org/instances and see if there's an instance that speaks to you. It's theme (or lack thereof), politics, location, size, who it does or doesn't federate with, etc. But like I said, no pressure, it's normal to have to find your footing first.
This site gives an idea of how Lemmy & kbin are growing.
I like this one: https://the-federation.info/platform/73
Good graphs to look at are: Active this month, Total Posts, and Total Comments. You can also look at these graphs on a per server basis. I'm on lemmy.ca so I've been following that server closely. Very happy with my local admins so far.
