This whole fediverse thing is a bit strange after 10 years of rif. But Reddit was going downhill for quite a while. Hope this takes off!
Are this active users? (Commenting/posting) or just traffic?
I ask as I spent time in different servers looking for one I liked before making an account, so it took a while before I became an 'active user'
Lemmy only counts activity as commenting or posting. Unlike Reddit which counted any eyeball on a post as active. However, this is a traffic graph from the server, not from Lemmy itself.
I joined a few weeks ago but after RIF died just over an hour ago it looks like I've found my new home.
I joined 2 weeks ago, I technically am a migrant lol but I feel like a veteran already .
WELCOME REDDITORS!
Joining the party as RIF kicks the bed :')
You're all the technology-savvy intelligent ones who figured out Lemmy right away, months ago. I was trying to get into Lemmy even before July 1st but finally figured it out today November 10th! I finally got into Lemmy today. It was nearly as difficult as applying & repeatedly being rejected for competitive employment somewhere. sheesh.
My first post as a refugee! Glad this place is here to fill the void.
Welcome, Bill!
that is cool. there is no such thing as too many graphs, so don't be shy in the future π
Second ever comment here. I watched Apollo shut down live, went to sleep and then immediately tried opening it up again after waking up, out of habit - girlfriends still asleep and I got so used to browsing Reddit for a bit before we get up on weekends, it has become muscle memory.
Using Wefwef currently and itβs nice, awesome work especially for a web app.
I straight up don't know how to use Lemmy. I feel like I need to relearn how to ride a bike.
I've been here for a bit more than a week now and my biggest advice and is to take it as it is. Take a deep breath, accept that this is Lemmy and not something else, and that you're feeling it out. This is not relearning a bike, this is getting in a peddle boat for the first time. Similar, yes, but also it's own thing.

It has become muscle memory for me to open the app. My phone seems so empty now.
Same. Hopefully a good Lemmy app can take the old place Reddit is Fun had
Tell us about the before-times, gramps!
We used to struggle without our beloved pre built subreddits!
We had to pray to our instance develop lords with praise for giving us space!
Fr fr tho this experience is historical and I'm learning just as much as you! I learn if there's a community missing that you used to frequent, make it yourself!
I ended up making !onepiece@lemm.ee to fill my GOAT manga needs

Lemmy uses roughly 150 MB of RAM in the default Docker installation. CPU usage is negligible.
Was browsing Apollo, it ceased, I opened the Reddit app once, closed it, signed up for Lemmy.
Same but from Reddit is fun
Yes!
I'm just glad I found a server that allowed me to register. Been trying for weeks. Lemmy.ml is closed for registration. Lemmy.world just spins when you hit the register button. Another instance just said my registration was pending.
