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!
They need to slow the growth this place has become nearly unusable.
The nice part about federated software is that there are other instances you can join :D
I just switched over to lemm.ee. Much better now.
66.6%? Looks like even satan has left reddit.

Congrats Lemmy.world!
I originally was using an account at .world but it started to get really slow under the stress of all the new users.
So I've since switched (to lemmy.ca) and it's been really nice. However, when I look at this thread from my .world account I can see a lot more comments. I know there are issues with syncing between instances and so I'd prefer to use .world if/when it is more stable. This way I can avoid the syncing issues mostly.
In any case I'm happy for Lemmy. I have multiple accounts and will use them whenever necessary. I wish there was something that could sync community lists between accounts. It was a bit of a chore to sync my community subscriptions for my accounts.
Lemmy world domination continues - I've noticed in the last few days the world communities on each topic have all surged into first place in subscriber numbers.
Maybe this explains why my Jerboa and Connect for Lemmy apps are sometimes showing network error and JSON pop ups.. but that's okay. Hopefully the situation will get better soon
Came from Apollo, only been on Reddit once. That was enough for me..
Only thing I’m messed up with is Reddit’s NSFW subreddits can’t be viewed logged out and I won’t log in either. Oh well. I won’t allow myself to contribute there.
Lfg!!!!! Proud to be apart of this new chapter
I'm happy to be here. Thank you.
14k users per week, 22k users per month, makes it look like a bunch of people tried it and then didn't come back.
It is important to distribute newly joining users evenly among different servers to enhance server performance and maintain decentralization
