Fediverse

Impressive, I guess, but how many of those 2 million posts have a single comment? If 90% of these are just bots reposting things from Reddit with no further engagement…

All I'm missing is the more niche communities to grow. It's good to see lots of memes and engagement but a man needs more.

I would like to thank everyone on here for the last two months or whatever it's been from the start of the migration, and to the people just coming over, and those who were here already. I actually feel like I've grown as an individual in my time here. I'm starting to see certain patterns in my own behavior and working on them thanks to the content and the engaging discussions on here. I used to avoid interaction and lost all hope, but you are all really awesome. Thank you <3

First comment ever on lemmy! With reddit and the latest update moving shtiff around, it's gotten to a point where I no longer want to be apart of that app. Not mentioning the money grubbing infants over there... So I'm trying this one out! Thanks for staying open and active! 👍

Welcome you guys, I ditched Reddit and made this happen.

🚀 more posters less lurkers!

Lurker here mostly but happy to find a new home!

185 comments are mine! :)

And 7 posts...

To the moon!

Also think about how many more lurkers there are. There are many more lurkers than people making posts and comments.

all the subreddits i love had no visible immigration to lemmy so i will have to wait a while to see the change

I'm new to Lemmy and I am using Sync for Lemmy but so far none of my comments are showing up. I'm attempting to comment from my browser this time and I hope it works.

Edit: my comments seem to be showing in browser but not via Sync for Lemmy. Can someone recommend different Lemmy app?

Edit: you guys are great, I uninstalled and restarted and now my comments are showing up along with all your replies that just popped up at once!

Happy to be here, doing my part. Thanks to all of you, that made it possible!

Thanks, spez / Steve Huffman. Now do us all a favor and fire yourself. It would probably drive that traffic back down slightly, but we could live with it.

So it seems like lemmy is still improving in content, even though the reddit situation has stabilised. That is awesome to see!

Stonks!

I know a lot of communities are trying to get more popular by using bots to post relevant content. And generally they do a great job, its like an aggregator inside an aggregator. woa dude. Post engagement might be a better metric, but this graph is visually more impressive.

Man, how are you guys keeping up with the servers and increase in traffic?

guessing this doesn't include hexbear.net because they aren't federated yet but they have 270k posts and 3.6 million comments on their own, mostly well before the start of this graph, so it ought to start at more like 500k

But I'm so glad to see lemmy taking off properly, not just used for some niches. FOSS internet infrastructure that is accessible to end users is so important, it safeguards a lot of important freedoms, etc.

There is also a very clear upwards trend I would say 😁

Well I'm not helping much, just lurking with a few comments. Hell yeah go us

Burn, reddit, burn.

Lemmy.world better keep up

We're doing the thing!

i'm seeing a lot more content here recently, which is why I keep coming back.

That chart gives me 2017 crypto vibes and I dig it

What happened on July 29th?

At first I thought it was Sync coming out, but it came out on August 2

And a hearty F.U. to reddit

Ya I'm surprised it moved that fast but that's awesome, be sweet if it keeps up the momentum and gets as big as Reddit.

Someone migrate Qanon Casualties to Lemmy 🤕

this isnt a social media home anymore. This place felt like a big home for all.
