Reddit - Dive into anything
www.reddit.com

As a result, our instance https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/ got 625 new user registrations (of which 536 where accepted) in the past 24 hours! And the registrations are not abating even now. We still get like 10 new ones per hour!

I suspect this is probably the largest advertisement, for lemmy specifically, since the main reddit blackouts 1.5 years ago.

Have your own instances also seen an influx of new users?

      the year of the snake lemming

      On a more serious note: I wonder if the year of Lemmy will never come. Constant de-federation and churn might splinter it again, much like distros did kinda splinter the Linux desktop.

        There will never be “a lemmy”. There’s no canonical “lemmy” out there. There is only 1000 independent websites, sharing select content with select neighbours.

        We either accept this, or we return to corporate social media.
