Speaking of 3rd party apps, here's a list of all lemmy apps currently in development: https://lemmy.world/post/465785
For iOS, I'm testing Liftoff, Memmy, and Thunder. For Android, I'm testing Jerboa. What's everyone's favorite app so far?> The top two instances, lemmy.world and lemmy.ml have a total number of comments of 156331 and 188364.
EDIT: @Elcapitan786@lemmy.world has pointed out that this stat is for total comments by day, not per day. Thanks for the correction.
Wait, there really are 5.7 million comments a day on Lemmy?
Maybe, but how many of them are by bots?
Yeah there are a lot of communities out there where there is just a bot that appears to be mirroring what is posted on the subreddit it mirrors. There are a ton of posts like that I have seen.
Bot detected
You know, if we had mass tagging built in to the platform, it would solve a lot of bot problems. Probably create whole new ones, too.
Spread across almost 1000 lemmy instances, yeah.
