I don't know any Lemmy users IRL. I have nudged my friends towards it. My partner has asked me to post things a few times. Just curious.

My partner was on it for like a minute but I don't think they use it anymore. Certainly not as much as I do.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Just my partner and I.

Two. The friend who sent me here and a friend I sent here.

Big fat goose egg 0. A lot of people I talk to don't even know what Reddit is, really.

Just my husband, but not sure he counts as he doesn’t have an account. I did meet one of my closest friends on Reddit though.

I know some people using that big social network Lemmy-like. But none of them came to here.

no one uses lemmy in my country.

I know one who I stumble upon once in a while in the comments, we say hi to each other

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I know one.

So far I don't think I've met anyone

PS. According to the subscribers of the Greek community, there are probably less than 70 Greeks online on lemmy (and probably some of them live abroad), so it's probably rather rare to find someone who uses it.

Just my wife, who downloaded the app for me and subscribed to instances because it's too complicated and effort

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Yeah that's certainly a weakness of signing up for the fediverse (Lemmy, mastodon, etc).

0.5. One friend found my lemmy account when scouring the internet for TTRPG maps. I think that halfway counts, even if he doesn't have an account of his own.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Ha I'll add 0.5 to the count
