The site seems to be down?

[–] Senseibu@feddit.uk 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah it’s probably been hugged to death for the time being

Our baby grows up so fast <3

I'm a new user and I can't really use it on mobile yet, kind of confusing

[–] Pixlbabble@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Jerboa seems to be doing a nice job.

[–] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 year ago

And it's constantly improving too! I just submitted a change to add better localization support and a Japanese translation.

[–] Bonesince1997@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Have you looked for Jerboa for Lemmy in you apps store? That's what I'm using, for better or worse.

[–] MissJinx@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I started by using Jeroba and I'm having a very close experience to reddit (at least the one I have in boost). I won't download the official app so once boost goes offline it's over for me. Lemmy could sell a "great migration of 2023" badge to help with the upgrading costs.

I'm in the same boat, need something else to fill my daily commute

I am happy that Lemmy is receiving more attention, but I suspect that these numbers are misleading, some people have more than one account (not my case!) and how many of them were active in the last 30 days?

[–] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I can't answer how many different accounts one person has on avg, but I can tell you that about 23k accounts have been active in the last month.

[–] Aurix@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Lemmy will have inflated user numbers, because you need multiple accounts due to defederation issues. It will probably settle down in the future, but for now unavoidably.

[–] xc2215x@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

That is really good to see.

[–] anders@rytter.me 6 points 1 year ago

@Senseibu Congrats guys πŸŽ‰

Glad to be apart of a growing community. After that bullshit Reddit pulled, I'm happy to be here πŸŽ‰πŸ₯³

Some thoughts

  • So nodes and instants are interchangeable terms
  • wth 140k? I thought we were around the 30k mark or something. Great!
  • Lemmy.ml is bigger than .world but world has a lot more active users? Interesting. I think .world will be known in the future as the redfuge instant.
  • Beehaw defederated? That kinda defeats the point of the fediverse, doesn’t it? I’d be a little mad if some moderator could make that call for me if I was registered to Beehaw
[–] Zetaphor@zemmy.cc 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Being able to defederate from an instance is the very definition of the fediverse. You are not beholden to a single provider

[–] Targox@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

You are right, but nevertheless as a user of said instance I'd be a tad annoyed. But I guess there's nothing holding one back to register on another instance if that happens.
