Lemmy is booming

I have never before received so many reactions and comments on my Lemmy posts before, so it's obvious to see, that there are many new members here.
Welcome to all the new! And I'm looking forward to see more of you here.
Cheers!

I agree, there's no need to pressure users. But there's also a lot of room for improvement and for a better onboarding flow. We shouldn't just settle with the current page and on the idea that people will later migrate their account. Some other commenter was talking about a sort of wizard, to filter instances based on interests and other factors, while anlther mentioned rotating registrations, and I think those are great ideas! They would make the process easier and more intuitive, also allowing the users to be more evenly distributed across the network, in a more "invisible" way to the user. Would help the user and the network alike.
