A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

A timeline I created of the total users at the top 10 Lemmy instances as a bar chart race: https://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/14058992/ and as a line chart: https://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/14080522/.

I’m going to bee honest, the mascot was a big factor in picking this instance for me.

Yup. That played a big role for me, too. The other factor was lemmy.ml was the first to approve my signup, finally giving me the ability to post. I’m still looking around to get a feel for other instances, and might even set up my own.

Only reason I didn't go to lemmy.ml is because their top post was "please go somewhere else." Lol

[–] slashzero@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I saw that too, but other places I signed up still haven’t approved me, so I signed up here.
