Lemmy.nz here

I think it is cool that it is coming up on nearly 2 million across all ~1200 instances.

In looking for a replacement for Reddit, I came across this. I'm hopefully optimistic. The last straw for me in a long list of issues that I have with Reddit came yesterday. Lemmy has a long way to go, but I'm moving away from Reddit and will become active here.

I have high hopes for Lemmy, but I don't think that having a lot of users is going to be a super positive thing in the long term. It'd be great if it could feel like younger Reddit for longer than younger Reddit did, you know? Stay at least a little under the radar.

I'm just looking forward to the meme subreddits becoming less outdated. Feels like 2017 in here

Hello fellow programming.dev lemmings!

We should spread out across it, if the lemmy.world hack and the fact that its admins are even flirting with the idea of fedding with threads are any indication

Was vlemmy.net one of those before it, ah, went off to see Titanic?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I can't recall seeing it in the top 10 within the past month when I started tracking. It only had about 4500 users though.

Heck yeah! Let's go!

Why is kbin never included in these breakdowns? Is it not "formally" considered lemmy or something of that sort?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sometimes it is, say here:
https://fedidb.org/current-events/threadiverse
But you might as well say why isn't Mastodon included? Kbin is a fundamentally different platform and architecture, even if the two are largely compatible (as is Mastodon, to a slightly lesser extent with Lemmy).
It is perfectly reasonable to look at the growth of Lemmy, think of it like quoting use of one flavour of Linux - Linux uptake overall is also interesting, but not the same.
