Feels like being part of internet history. I wonder how many of us have accounts on both :D.

EDIT - turns out I was wrong - here's a better way of seeing the stats for the "Threadiverse":

https://fedidb.org/current-events/threadiverse - we're up to 169,312 users now!

Nice, i just wonder how many people have 2-3 accounts to test out different communities

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

That's pretty impressive, I have two accounts but think I've settled on kbin

This was years overdue. Glad to see Reddit die. It was too stagnated and was just really poorly managed.

But a total of 125k across the fediverse, a lot of which who will leave after getting fed up with the bugs, is hardly Reddit dying. Unfortunately.

Reddit will die because it’s content creators are no longer there. It’s moderators who are the backbone of the site are leaving in droves. The site may exist but it won’t be the Reddit that was.

I'm just on Kbin. Got a long way to go before we are anywhere near reddit numbers, but as long as there is content to interact with, smaller might be better

I have a feeling a lot of people do have double accounts. Do you have any numbers of before the reddit fuckuppery of late? I’d have thought it would be more than 125k, since there were many many millions affected, right?

I have an account on both, but I find myself depending more time on Kbin. I like the interface here.

I'm sure many are waiting for the 2 days to be up and rejoin their subreddits. Hopefully they see the light and come to the fediverse. The downside is that much traffic at once would destroy all fediverse servers. A slow trickle is better

I personally have accounts on both.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Me too, but I find myself clicking over here more often

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I really like kbin, but one of the communities I like on Lemmy isn't reachable from here yet.

So I'll use two accounts for now, it's not that bad really.
