Lemmy.world grew from about 51k users when third-party reddit apps started to shut down to about 84.8k users at the time of this post.

Definitely felt some growing pains in the past few days, but it's great to see the platform more active now that things have become more stable.

So, welcome reddit expats!

I actually don't on't mind the smaller user base on Lemmy at all.

First work day since shutdown, I survived without Reddit, I'm sure I can continue doing so. Lemmy has plenty of potential yet already "good enough" to take Reddit's place.

That's the funniest thing - I'm one of those senile Digg to Reddit people. Digg to Reddit was something I felt and dreaded. Reddit to Lemmy was a relief. There is not as much to click but everything is worth a click.
