It really feels like Lemmy is alive because of you.

When I first checked out Lemmy, I wasn't expecting there to be so much content, so much discussion, and so much community. But I've spent the better part of two days glued to my screen, browsing content all day. I've seen so many posts, so many interesting discussions about the fediverse, and of course, plenty of memes. It really feels like the start of something incredible.

I've gotta get back to work soon, but wow. I think this whole fediverse thing really is the next step for social media. If I find some extra time, I'll definitely consider contributing to Lemmy's source code to help this project and the FOSS ecosystem grow.

It's unlikely to topple Reddit regardless, but so long as the scalability proves functional enough to support recommending lemmy.world to non tech-savvy newbies I don't see this particular issue becoming problematic. Most of the larger recommended instances have open community creation anyway. I guess BeeHaw doesn't but people aren't really recommending it to newbies either.
