I think the moment a decent app becomes available, or Spez does something else fucking stupid, active users are gonna skyrocket again.

๐ฏ Lemmy is self-sustaining now, and the programmers/server admins are getting experience with scaling. IMO Lemmy is now open for business to steal users every time Reddit does something shitty. I'd say spez should be worried, but he probably doesn't actually care past the pump&dump IPO and if Reddit becomes a ghost town after that he'll have already rode off into the sunset.
Connect is pretty good, and right now is ad free.

So long and thanks for all the fish!
honestly, even i went off of lemmy for a bit, not because i dont like lemmy, but because every time i reloaded the page, it would sign me out, and i couldn't save any settings, it seems to be happening across most lemmy instances right now

Beans are killing lemmy stop beansss
Well some people start communities but are not up to task. There should be a well developed rules/about community page. I have seen just create a community post links and do very little to build engagement.
People are gonna look and leave if a community has like 10 members a new thread with a few replies every two to three days and links.
When I get a little time I will be creating a community. Either way level of engagement will take time to build but lackadasial community creaters add to the build time.

I remember the good old 4chan days when every 3rd post was about how "this is the cancer that is killing /b/" ...
Which in hindsight was not wrong. It's a husk of what it was. I fought with many a /b/tard in the great Tumblr wars. It was remnant of a more wild age, before the summer posters, before the psyops.
I was playing Outer Worlds
That's OK. Those are just people from the influx. Eventually it will stabilize and start growing again. Gradual growth is the best way to build upon a solid foundation.
Might have something to do with everyone getting logged out of their accounts after the hack. I have been browsing but not logged in until just now

I haven't been on Lemmy in a few days because I can't even login on their website. Broke down and downloaded an app through play store so I could login to comment. I was waiting for Boost for Lemmy, but I guess fate had other plans.
Move off of lemmy.world
The big instances are overloaded and have major downtime issues

Are these real stats? Or just a directional commentary that Lemmy is growing? If they are real, where can we see these?
Lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world does not immediately imply credibility.
Real. But no cause for concern. Lemmy experienced a massive, 20-plus-fold increase in userbase almost overnight. The small dip is most likely just the new users settling in and starting to lurk. The recent bot purges probably helped a bit in causing the dip. In any case, it would probably be weirder if we didn't see a dip after such a massive flood of new users
Edit: also, the website to check is the-federation.info
Also: hockey-stick growth rates are unsustainable. Attempts to force it lead to toxic and extractive environments.
