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!

Good tips! I should have explained a bit more, but by getting a server as close as possible, your ping should theoretically be lower than an instance that's far from you (I know, the internet is not a straight line to the server).

The best way to test this is by pinging the server in a CMD prompt/terminal.
