Lemmy.world grew from about 51k users when third-party reddit apps started to shut down to about 84.8k users at the time of this post.
Definitely felt some growing pains in the past few days, but it's great to see the platform more active now that things have become more stable.
So, welcome reddit expats!
There's likely more room for growth as several apps are still working as they move to the subscription model, so I wouldn't be surprised if there is another mini wave on the horizon!
They need to slow the growth this place has become nearly unusable.
The nice part about federated software is that there are other instances you can join :D
I just switched over to lemm.ee. Much better now.
Maybe this explains why my Jerboa and Connect for Lemmy apps are sometimes showing network error and JSON pop ups.. but that's okay. Hopefully the situation will get better soon
The API hasn't shut down yet. I don't know wtf they are doing at reddit hq but many of the apps, and nsfw posts, still work completely normally with no changes.
It's mad, even when it wouldn't load I felt no need to return to Deddit. Keep up the good work all.
Lemmy world domination continues - I've noticed in the last few days the world communities on each topic have all surged into first place in subscriber numbers.
Where can I find a lemmy community 'list like Reddit have please?
Have a look at !newcommunities@lemmy.world . Sort by top if needed and especially this post
Edit: and I also learned about !wowthislemmyexists@lemmy.ca
I used to sub to new subreddit via such subreddits, or in comments of posts that showed me through a discussion. Or sidebar of subreddit on related ones.
I doubt it’s the performance and more the lack of content. Even copy-pastas would be good at this time.
Good for Lemmy.
Good for our friends on Kbin too! More content is good for everyone :)
Lfg!!!!! Proud to be apart of this new chapter
