Yes, it really does!

Since my post yesterday, lemmy.world has added about new 2600 users, bringing the user count to 28361 users. It's the clear second-largest lemmy instance out there and quickly closing in on lemmy.ml's 36k users (not taking new signups).

Interestingly, third-largest lemmy instance beehaw.org seems to have lost about 275 users since yesterday. Guessing some people were pissed off about its defederation enough to delete their beehaw accounts?

July 1st most API driven 3rd party stuff gets shut down because of exorbitant API charges.

Didn't know it was such a fast turnaround.

Literally crazy!

That’s part of why the 3rd party’s are shutting down. Should’ve been a year transition.
